Talk:Dryomyza anilis

I thought this article was thorough and covered behavior of this species very well. The main issues that I improved were grammar, punctuation and organization of the writing. I edited the entire article for concise and clear language, although there is a lot of jargon such as in the descriptions of the fly and the larvae that may seem unapproachable but are used for accuracy. I added three subsections to the section “Home range and territoriality,” which was a large block paragraph but is now organized by topic into “Territory-based conflict take-overs,” “Size of male,” and “Contests over females.” I also edited the capitalization of the headings. In addition, I corrected one hyperlink, removed those I felt were necessary (such as to common terms like “marine” or “terrestrial”), and added links to technical terms like “chorion.” Great job with editing and expanding this article!

 * I adjusted images in the Description section. I made the face of the fly image a bit smaller and I moved the wing marking image to the right to still line up with the morphology text but both images would then fit under Description instead of running over the line break to Distribution. This is purely aesthetic and feel free to change it back if you don't like it! Listephanie (talk) 02:44, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi! Great article! You are very thorough throughout. I mostly changed grammar and making sentences more concise, as well as editing your citation structures. If you were to continue this article, I think it is important that you give information on the pupa and adult stages in the life history section. Since there is so much information on the fly, perhaps it is even possible to find information on the taxonomy and evolution! I would also consider evaluating if the information presented in the lead section is necessary for a general introduction to a reader. Mvardy417 (talk) 03:47, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

I thought this was very well done and thought out! One of my biggest suggestions is to summarize your intro section better and make it more concise. I did edit it for flow and clarity and I also added a sentence that was previously in the description section, in your intro. I added a morphology section in your description section to better organize the information you presented. Also try not to use modifiers (i.e for example, another way etc.) I edited these out for concision. I also added in that its habitat does include Fungi, which was also mentioned in the source you cited. I made minor edits related to flow, clarity, and grammar. If you continue to do this fly, then I would suggest adding a section on any research surrounding the fly. Overall, really great!Asivamohan (talk) 03:35, 18 October 2019 (UTC)asivamohan

=Behavioral ecology assignment= As a part of a Behavioral Ecology course assignment, I researched and updated numerous sections of the Wikipedia page (everything beyond the first paragraph of the lead section; 13+ total sections introduced). Please let me know if you see any fixes, all input is greatly appreciated! I was able to find 14 sources with credible information on the fly, many of them focus on mating behaviors in particular.
