Note that FBbi:00000246 "fluorescence microscopy" (without a definition) seems to be listed under EFO in OLS.

@zoependlington , do you not add EFO terms for terms that EFO has imported? (Pardon my ignorance.)

[zoependlington]

@rileygr No. The term is imported into EFO with the original ID, so it's fully usable with that original ID while still being in EFO. For example, a lot of our disease terms are imported from Mondo. You can see them all here with Mondo IDs intermingled with EFO IDs: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols4/ontologies/efo/classes/http%253A%252F%252Fpurl.obolibrary.org%252Fobo%252FMONDO_0000001?lang=en
