The definition of 'life cycle stage' states that it is a "spatiotemporal region". However, the parent for 'life cycle stage' is not BFO's 'spatiotemporal region', but 'processual entity', whose definition looks similar to BFO's 'process'.
I would like to know which category you understand this term to be in; could some biological process be part of a life cycle stage, or does it occupy a life cycle stage?
I'd suggest 'process' or 'spatiotemporal region' from BFO as the parent, but I'm really only looking for clarification.

Clarification about life cycle stage is also needed for ECTO. In ECTO, the various stages (death stage, embryo stage, etc.) are simply placed under occurrent.
I agree with @johnwjudkins that it difficult to differentiateprocess and processual entity based on the definitions. This was issue was also raised in #2301.
