Peer Review of Bombus Citrinus Article - Milan
The "phylogeny" section is very cluttered and could benefit from being broken down into more specific sections, such as "etymology & origin", "distribution", "parasitic interactions", and "key features for identification". I would suggest organizing the information better as right now the sections are confusing, since there is one section with information I assume you've gleaned from a scientific paper with the paper's title as the section title, and that same information on mauling is present again underneath the "usurpation" category. There is also a lot of formatting errors, so I would suggest picking one font and text size to work with. You should also add in-text citations and a references section. I suggest adding more information on the following topics: sociality, diet, nesting, timing, and floral interactions. You could also benefit from having pictures of the bees in the article.

Overall, I think you have a really good amount of content, but you just need to work more on organizing and categorizing your information so that it is easier for viewers to read and find the things they're looking for. There is probably more research you can do on the various topics I've mentioned above. There are also formatting errors which would be quite easy to fix. The tone of your article is neutral and straightforward, and there seems to be no bias evident, which is important for wikipedia articles. Good job with this!

The information on Dufour's glands towards the end of the Phylogeny section could be moved into a chemical ecology section that also contains the information from the "Chemical ecology involved in invasion success of the cuckoo bumblebee Psithyrus vestalis and in survival of workers of its host Bombus terrestris" section.

In the Phylogeny section:"Previous classification had Psithyrus listed as its own genus, and so this species used to be identified as Psithyrus citrinus.", add "A" to the beginning of this sentence, making it "A previous classification had Psithyrus listed as its own genus, and so this species used to be identified as Psithyrus citrinus."

Maybe add a section on Parasitism where you could move this sentence to: "Bombus citrinus is known to parasitize the species Bombus impatiens and Bombus vagans which are found in the subgenus Pyrobombus." instead of it being in Phylogeny.

Change the "Usurpation" and "Chemical ecology..." sections to sentence format as opposed to bullet format.

"B. citrinus belong to the subgenus Psithyrus, which include exclusively social parasite bees" possibly change to "B. citrinus belongs to the subgenus Psithyrus, which includes exclusively social parasite bees".

All in all, you have really detailed information about your current sections! You have a good amount of sources and your content is detailed and free of bias. Once you format it all and proofread for grammar it will be a great addition to the Bombus citrinus page.

Getting material on Wikipedia
You have excellent research and I look forward to seeing more of this content on the live Wikipedia page for Bombus citrinus. Make sure to add why they are called citrinus!!! Muniche (talk) 14:08, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
