 * Symbol question.svg Long enough (though not by much) -- can it be expanded? There appears to be a lot more material in some of the references. Date created is ok. Hook fact checks out in reliable source; hook is short enough & sufficiently attention grabbing. The article is neutral & appears stable. No close paraphrasing detected. QPQ completed. I found a few problems with the text; "common" in the pseudo-lead does not appear to be cited anywhere (seems covered in ref 3). "The elongate body and partly transparent and pale yellow or olive with a silver operculum and belly." seems to have been garbled. More wikilinks (eg to geographical features) would be helpful.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks, this looks good. The only outstanding issue is the citation for it being common. Espresso Addict (talk) 17:42, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
