This article is new enough and long enough. The hook fact is well cited and the image is in the public domain. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:21, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Comment This article is very badly written, contradictory, confusing and hard to understand. it is also not in line with its sources, even where mostly copied and pasted. Please don't put it on the main page without a complete rewrite. --(AfadsBad (talk) 10:27, 2 October 2013 (UTC))
Also species and genera are to be italicized. I can't do anymore; the article is a disaster. --(AfadsBad (talk) 10:37, 2 October 2013 (UTC))
