Thanks for offering to review. I don't intend to bring this article to FAC because its subject is too limited, but would like to make it as good as possible, so don't hesitate to make suggestions for improvement that go above and beyond the GA criteria. Ucucha 19:09, 11 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Pass, with comments: The article is well-written and follows MoS, with no noticeable issues. Given that the species is only known from its holotype, I feel the article thoroughly covers the subject, particularly the species' taxonomic history and morphology. My only suggestions, which do not affect a GA review, are:

  1. I personally prefer all references and cited literature to use the {{cite}} templates so that if, for instance, someone wanted to add an ISSN or ISBN, then it could be done easily.
  2. Following from the previous point, it would be nice if the ISSNs of the articles could be included.

Aside from that, it's a great short article! – VisionHolder « talk » 19:17, 11 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
