Abstract
Subgena and clypeus are a continuous plate, so should be collectively called as peristoma. Subsequently, subgenal sulcus is revised into peristomal sulcus or cranio-stomal sulcus. Ptilinal suture on dipteran adult head is revised into ptilinal fissure. Notal and pleural wing processes are revised into notal and pleural process, respectively. The lower plate of abdomen is ventum, while that of thorax is sternum.
