  • ... that the extinct ant Odontomachus pseudobauri (pictured) was bought from an amber dealer in Basel, Switzerland? Source: "A.

  • Add "extinct" before the "ant" in the hook to make it more interesting. Volunteer Marek  02:05, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
  • "Facepalm* Im my opinion is not needed at all, but I have done it.--Kevmin § 05:20, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. The image is appropriately licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. These two sentences don't seem to be quite right, but I haven't got access to the source to check them out. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:49, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
  • ".. the chewing margin of the right mandible having 14 teeth, while there are 13 teeth in the right."
  • "The third through end segments of the gaster are shrunken and missing."
  • @Cwmhiraeth: Mandible sentence corrected to 13 teeth on the left. The gaster sentence is correct, the fossil is missing the rear half of the abdomen.--Kevmin § 14:58, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
  • OK. On further thoughts, I can understand "third through end", but it could be more clearly expressed. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:34, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
