yes, tried to use both in glossary entries
I have used them together as appropriate, for instance, in the entries for leg and cephalothorax.

The two diagrams are certainly similar, and I debated about uploading this one, but it does show some things not on the other, and vice versa. It was a quick job to scan it and clean it up, so I went ahead.

In terms of long-term development of the glossary, we could certainly use some diagrams with clickable points to go to individual terms, but I don't believe the current BugGuide software allows clickable maps--I may be wrong on that.
