Entities: if you need something that is not listed, simply use the
"Additions or Comments" space at the end of the form).

be sure the correct one is counted. A few prefixes/Entities are shown in
red, to indicate either an addition to the list from last year or a change
in the prefix (e.g. ZK2 is now E6).
