Hemaris thysbe[edit]

(

)

... that despite its appearance Hemaris thysbe (pictured) is not a hummingbird, but rather a moth?

Reviewed: Barun Biswas
Comment: Hook probably only works if the picture is used. If for some reason picture is not used, I can provide another hook. I may try for GA on the article, so any suggestions for improvement are welcome.

Nice article. Length, date and hook reference are all in order. No copy vio. Img is freely licensed.--Nvvchar. 14:15, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

I prefer the original wording if the pic is used (I feel it more strong draws attention to the picture). If the pic isn't used, the alt is better - or I can provide a different fact entirely. --ThaddeusB (talk) 21:00, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
