Bristletails[edit]
I'm pretty sure with the Archaeognatha (Microcoryphia) moved out, they are called the bristletails, not the Thysanura, but I didn't want to remove that if you had other information. - Taxman Talk 17:05, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
Microcoryphia were the jumping bristletails and a separate order. The link below reads correctly. The order Thysanura was the firebrats and bristletails. Check any entomology textbook prior to 2000. It seems nothing has change except the names.

Family Lepismatidae[edit]
Ok so maybe nobody really cares, but in this article it says that Lepismatidae has 200+ members, in the article for the family itself it claims 190. This seems like quite an inconsistency given that the two link each other in several places. To make matters worse, one of the citations for the family's page actually claims 44 member species (http://www.faunaeur.org/species_list.php this one). Anybody know where to find a definitive list of them? Drunaii (talk) 04:59, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
What eats them[edit]
I would like to see something about what eats them. --LegitimateAndEvenCompelling (talk) 01:56, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Diet[edit]
I am going to add that they consume a variety of vegetative matter in nature; the current paragraph seems to imply that they rely on humans for their diet. Chonaron (talk) 01:49, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
