MarmorkrebsMarbled crayfishWP:USEENGLISH. While there's a connection between the subject and the German-speaking world, this is a species native to the United States with an unambiguous, recognizable English name. --BDD (talk) 20:00, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Even if we can say for sure that the mutation occurred in Germany, the most relevant question given our naming conventions is whether Marmorkrebs is the common name in English. That German authors would not use it in a Nature journal—thanks for that source, Küchenkraut—points strongly to "no". --BDD (talk) 15:30, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The current most-prevalent name of this creature is "Marbled crayfish". Verify this with a Google search.--Quisqualis (talk) 20:35, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
[edit]

No opinion of the pagemove proposal but the marbledcrayfish.com extlink is spammy in my opinion and I'd like to remove it (or maybe someone else can). The marmorkrebs.org one is a lot more science-oriented and better in general, so I suggest using just that one. Any objections? I resisted adding "see also" internal links to tribbles and ice-nine. :) 173.228.123.121 (talk) 09:12, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Removed. -Zanhe (talk) 20:00, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Taxon/taxobox

[edit]

That probably needs to adjusted as of the end of last year the marbled crayfish is considered as its own species:

Better description of species needed

[edit]

What size are thesecrayfish? What do they eat? Have they developed any new traits significantly different from their parent species? — Preceding unsigned comment added by NeilDD (talkcontribs) 13:19, 7 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is in the article they "lost" sexual reproduction.--Kmhkmh (talk) 13:06, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How big are they, and what do they taste like?

Saltwater or Freshwater?

[edit]

The article should say that in the head. --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 05:44, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A crayfish is always preferring fresh water.--Quisqualis (talk) 23:00, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Genetics??

[edit]

OK, I am pretty sure that a triploid parthenogenic species needs to have a section about its genetics and problems arsing from the absence of genetic recombination. I also suggest translating some of the German and French articles to fill omissions in this article. ♆ CUSH ♆ 23:48, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Regulation

[edit]

The state of Ohio should be added to list of states that have made marbled crayfish illegal. 198.27.181.30 (talk) 02:19, 21 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
