Wow OMG so it means behind the suture, right? also if you have the time Es sind 2 ors vorhanden there are 2 (is ors an abbrev.) present? I like the language but it's immensely hard!

e.g : "Der Abstand der inneren Augenrander entspricht etwa der 4fachen Breite des 3. Fühlerglied." (Distance between inner eyes margin about 4 times as broad as 3rd antennal segment)
