This article is very well written, including strong organized categories in morphology, ecology, and behavior. However, there are only two references sited for the entire entry, so more could broaden coverage of the species. Also this article does not contain any pictures, which are an important necessary visual context for the information in the entry. The section on reproduction touches on the unique mating system of the species in a step-by-step process. However, while we would assume biased sex ratios seeing as these are eusocial organisms with a sole fertile queen and her consort males, the article fails to mention how these systems or their environment as a whole determines sex allocation. Lastly, a category on nesting would subdivide the Ecology category nicely, and a category on Predator/Prey Relationships would serve a similar purpose.
