Talk:Mischocyttarus flavitarsis

This article is very complete, and very interesting. It was well written, and there wan’t much to alter in terms of grammar and flow. In terms of information that you could include, perhaps you could say something more about diet. Do the wasps exclusively bring back nectar for the larvae, or will they return with animal protein as well? Why? It’s interesting that this wasp prefers to ram into threats rather than sting, but more detail on how and why this happens and how it’s effective would be good to have. Great work!

Peer Edit
Nice Job! I really enjoyed reading your article! I thought that your piece was very well organized, and I appreciated the way that you used subsections and larger sections. I think that making your introduction read more like an abstract and flow in the same way that your article does will give the readers a better sense of what’s in store. As of now, your intro is more tid-bits of information than an overview. I also would encourage you to look for more information about the “Identification” of your species. Is there sexual dimorphism? How long is it? In your “Distribution and habitat” section, I added some hyperlinks, and I would encourage you to do the same throughout the rest of the article as well. In your discussion of the “Colony Cycle”, I wasn’t exactly sure if the “foundress” was a queen or just a female. I think some clarification there will help your readers a lot! In addition, if you could find some information on the mating system that your species utilizes, I think that information would greatly enhance our understanding of the species and how it behaves with the other sex. Finally, in your “Dominance behavior” section, I think that you need to specify if there is a queen and if that queen is the dominant female. Overall, this is a great article.

General Comments
Good job! This article is well written and has a large breadth of different topics and information. However, there was not a lot of detail about the different sections. I think if you go back to your original sources, you may be able to get more details that would make this seem less like a summary. I changed a couple of grammatical issues with singular/plural in this article, and added some hyperlinks. I would suggest adding more to the Interaction with Other Species, because these are not as good as your initial sections. Overall, you did a great job with this!

Size?
Neither the size of queen or workers nor males are mentioned.--Mideal (talk) 19:11, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
