Microplana terrestris[edit]

  • Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: Article created from former redirect on 28 September; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I can't access all the sources but I noticed no copyright violations from those that I could; hooks are interesting and mentioned int he article; the first hook is verifiable from the abstract of the article cited, I am happy to AGF on the second hook; my personal preference is for the second hook as it seems more unusual; QPQ has been carried out; there is a free image available in the article if desired but is possibly not of great interest at small scale - Dumelow (talk) 09:19, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
