Clarification of Gregorian Chant terminology |

Hello all you 'Ancient Music' specialists!
I am currently re-organizing the Ancient Music section in the Notation
Reference which includes some standardization to bring things into line with
current documentation policy and other sections.
As I don't know that much about the terminology and only have google as my
reference I wondered if anyone can tell me if the term 'Augmentum dots' is a
proper term (rather than 'Morae') or just something that some decided to use
because it describes this notation?
I can only find using google our own LilyPond documentation that refers to them
as this.
Likewise the term 'Gregorian Square Neume Ligatures', could I for instance just
call them 'Gregorian Square Neumes' or whatever the plural is?
Thanks for your help.
James
