Talk:Cordylobia anthropophaga

Evaluation for Class

The Wikipedia entry for the tumbu fly is very well written. It has sections that are informative and cover a broad range of topics. It ends up being a very well-rounded entry that has information on the impact it has on its prey, how it finds its prey, some general information about the fly itself, and information on treatment for those infected. While all the sections are very good, they could be improved by being a little more detailed. A few of the sections are a little too brief, such as the life cycle. The life cycle section could use more physical description of the fly including its appearance, size, weight and other similar details. In general, this entry could be improved with more general information on the fly itself. The majority of the entry is focused on a medical/pathological standpoint. The references in the entry seem reliable and are cited well within the entry. This entry could also be helped through the addition of more pictures. Currently, the diagram of the larva and adult life stage is helpful, but other diagrams/images would be very helpful. The entry also maintains a neutral standpoint, and seems to have a stable editing history. JustinLevin (talk) 03:23, 18 September 2019 (UTC) JustinLevin

I miss a section about the putzi fly laing it's eggs in wet laundry and entering the human body when you put on your (dry) clothes - unless you iron (heat) your clothes, or let them lie for 3 days or more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.49.45.221 (talk) 16:30, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
