Link to "pea crab" is still invalid edit

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I unlinked "pea crab" for a reason. It should not have been relinked. Specifically, the article linked to is not about a group known as "pea crabs." The link is to an article about a different, not-closely-related, species of crustacean. C. garthi is not a Pinnotheres pisum and linking to that article makes no sense.

What would make sense would be, if that is taxonomically valid, creating an article "Pea Crab" that's about a larger taxonomic grouping that includes both Calyptraeotheres and Pinnotheres. Stop linking this article incorrectly, though. IAmNitpicking (talk) 13:10, 11 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
