 * Symbol voting keep.svg Per Cephalotes alveolatus' edit history, the expanded version of the article was added on 16 May, so this article is definitely submitted under the permissible time frame. The article's prose section has been expanded more than 5x and it is also well-sourced and referenced. Copyvio check is clean too. For the main hook, it is pretty straightforward and supported by an offline source and it is taken in good faith. The image used for the DYK is clear, and released under a suitable license. The nominator has also done his portion of QPQ as well. Good to go. SyFuel  Ignite  Burned  18:58, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
