Created by Thriley (talk) and Peter coxhead (talk). Nominated by Thriley (talk) at 19:31, 21 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Sasajiscymnus tsugae; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • Hi Thriley (talk), review follows: article moved to mainspace 18 March and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; a QPQ has been carried out; A handful of queries - Dumelow (talk) 11:08, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Hook is interesting enough for me but the article doesn't currently mention the eastern hemlock, just hemlock in general?
  • What does "pubescent on the dorsal surface" mean? Can it be simplified for the layman?
  • Link instar, chorion, pupa, larva
  • Much of the description section is too close to the source for my liking, can the paraphrasing be improved?
    • @Dumelow: Thank you for your review. I’ve fixed up the article and followed your suggestions. What do you think? Thriley (talk) 15:46, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
Here is the image for consideration. Thriley (talk) 15:50, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
. An image of the adelgid might be nice. Thriley (talk) 15:53, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
Hi Thriley, thanks for your changes. The hook checks out to the source cited (I removed "aggressive" as it wasn't used in the article). The finger image is OK (though a close-up of the insect might be better, it demonstrates it's size I suppose) and properly licensed. The aphid image is not in the Pseudoscymnus tsugae article so can't be used - Dumelow (talk) 09:08, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
