... that the extinct snakefly Alavaraphidia is known from a single female trapped in amber (pictured)?

I will review this. Chris857 (talk) 03:13, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Article is brand new (and so is the topic)
About 2700 characters
Only one ref, but the species was only discovered in 2012, so it is acceptable
Neutral, cited inline
Hook is brief and interesting
Image from appropriately-licensed journal
QPQ done

Issues:

I see Amarantoraphidia mentioned only once, what is its relevance to Alavaraphidia?
"stripped pattering" - should this be "striped patterning"?

More review to come. Chris857 (talk) 03:30, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for spotting those two mistakes. Amarantoraphidia was corrected to Alavaraphidia and the spelling was corrected to "striped patterning"--Kev min § 07:48, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

I detected no copyvio (they use so many abbreviations) and everything is verified except "Alavaraphidia imperterrita is one of six described snakefly species...". Where in the source is this? I notice that you mentioned in your last two dyks. Chris857 (talk) 03:45, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

See Table two of Pérez-de la Fuente 2012.--Kev min § 06:50, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

I see it now, six species from Spain and three larvae. Good to go. Chris857 (talk) 17:34, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
