Might as well take on this review, since this is the oldest species article nominated. From a quick glance the article looks good, although I do hate it when images cause section headers to shift, but I'm not sure if that's even a significant point to raise. Points will come soon.

Skipping to taxonomy because I like doing the lead last, there are a few odd quirks I think merrit mention. IJReid {{T - C - D - R}} 05:18, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • "short lived" and "short-lived" are odd ways to describe a taxonomic placement, rewording might fix this
  • I don't know the significance of Verhandlungen der Zoologisch, link if possible, or otherwise mention why it is important
  • If it may be split, perhaps mention how it would be if there is literature on that
  • "I. itoi was described as a separate species, while I. itoi abbotti was recognised as a subspecies" this wording is odd, perhaps something similar to "I. itoi was described as a separate species, which includes the later-named I. itoi abbotti as a subspecies" (assuming the subspecies was named later)
  • "and in the 1950s I. itoi was first noted to be similar to O. glaber" maybe move this statement to the beginning of the next sentence
  • "It is commonly known as" perhaps mention the full name here just for simplicities sake
  • You should know I love phylogenies, but there is no mention of any relatives anywhere in the article I can find. Cladograms can be requested here if you find any.
Commencing work today. Sorry for keeping this late. Burklemore1 (talk) 22:37, 14 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Burklemore1 and IJReid: Hello! What is the status of this review? Doesn't look like any progress has been made in over a month.--Dom497 (talk) 01:31, 2 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
Yeah I lost this one because of lack of action. I will close it unless something happens within the span of a week (5 days). IJReid {{T - C - D - R}} 04:41, 2 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
