Dr. White's critique of your first draft
Lead Chionoecetes is a genus of crabs that live in the northern Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. '''They are classified as Kingdom: Animalia, Phylum: Arthropada, Class: Crustacea, Order: Decapoda, and Family: Oregoniidae. This species family is bilateraly symetric and, because they are under the Crustacea class they are in the same class as other crabs, shrimp, lobsters, wate feals, etc.... [this is not necessary. The classification is already included in the article]''' Other names for crabs in this genus include "queen crab" (in Canada) and "spider crab" – they are known by different names in different areas of the world. The generic name Chionoecetes means snow (χιών, chion) inhabitant (οἰκητης, oiketes); opilio means shepherd, and C. opilio is the primary species referred to as snow crab. Marketing strategies, however, employ snow crab for any species in the genus Chionoecetes. The name "snow crab" refers to their being commonly found in cold northern oceans. Article body Species Seven extant species are currently recognised in the genus: •	Chionoecetes angulatus Rathbun, 1893 – triangle tanner crab o	Identifying facors for a triangle tanner crab are: The two dorsal rows of spines and tubercles on the branchial region meet at the outer margin in an acute angle. Interbranchial space not deeply depressed. Rostral teeth as wide as, or wider than, the length of their inner margin. [1] •	Chionoecetes bairdi Rathbun, 1893 – tanner crab, bairdi, or inshore tanner crab o	Distinguishing species for inshore tanner crabs are: has a rostrum which turns dorsally. It is mainly found at depths below 1000 m. style="font-style: italic;">C. opilio is an arctic species common near the Aleutian Islands, with carapace length and width nearly equal and less spines on the carapace.[2] •	Chionoecetes elongatus Rathbun, 1925 •	Chionoecetes japonicus Rathbun, 1932 – beni-zuwai crab •	Chionoecetes opilio (Fabricius, 1788) – snow crab or opilio •	Carapace nearly as wide as long, with moderately calcified integument presenting tubercles and hooked setae; rostrum horizontal, short and wide with two flat-pointed horns separated by a gap. Shallow open orbits with a dorsal fisure having a triangular spine.[3] Chionoecetes pacificus Sakai, 1978 •	Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun, 1893 – grooved tanner crab

'''Overall you did a good job. You added a lot of good information to the species list. The additions at the beginning are redundant. Nice addition of an image and GREAT job with in text citations. You should also add links to other Wikipedia pages. There are also several careless spelling and grammar mistakes. Your peer reviews have a few good suggestions as well.
