Description

I am looking into some conflicts between Uberon and EMAPA. One stems from 'flexor digitorum profundus', which is part of the forearm in EMAPA. The forearm is mapped to UBERON zeugopod. Uberon says this muscle is a 'forelimb stylopod muscle'. I'm no expert but it looks zeugopod-ish in this picture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_digitorum_profundus_muscle

Which is right?

Research direction

Compare the Uberon classification of flexor digitorum profundus with the EMAPA placement of the muscle in the forearm and zeugopod, using the linked anatomy reference as context. Done means resolving the stylopod-versus-zeugopod conflict and documenting or applying the agreed ontology correction; no file or test is named.
