  • ... that an illustration (pictured) of the Cartwrightia scarab Cartwrightia cartwrighti was printed on the invitations for entomologist Oscar Ling Cartwright's retirement party? Source: "As part of his description of that species, he included a beautiful illustration of it drawn by a friend and Scientific Illustrator, Elsie Herbold Froeschner. This illustration appeared as a logo on the invitation to his retirement party and on a gift of stationery he received at the party." [1]

  • These two articles are long enough and new enough. The various hook facts are cited inline and the image is in the public domain. The articles are neutral and I detected no policy issues. I will leave the choice of hook to the promoter. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:04, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
