Singular and plurals
In articles on organisms the encyclopaedic convention is to regard the species as a singular noun as in "Z. percontatoria like several parasitoids, are host specific ...." should rather be "Z. percontatoria in common with several other parasitoids, is host specific.

 * Thank you for letting me know and I have fixed the errors I believe. I appreciate the feedback! Geislergs (talk) 17:30, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

Additional feedback
It looks pretty good, but more links to other articles might be helpful. Topics and terms that are likely to be unfamiliar to the average reader should be linked the first time they appear in the article. That way, people can learn more about topics and terms they aren't familiar with. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:32, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
