The Xeris genus article does not conform to standard insect genus article standards and may need to be redone. Legendarycool (talk) 10:34, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

I think this would be better as it fits with the standard format for genus pages. You lose some information on the origin of species names but that's unnecessary for the genus page in my opinion. I also removed some of the images. Pothos144 (talk) 19:34, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

I feel like pages for most of this genus’s species probably need to be made at some point as there’s ample information on them. On the proposal you made I think it works very well. Legendarycool (talk) 01:38, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

I am very new to wikipedia editing, after working on the Polistes goeldii page I wanted to continue working on wasp pages. I currently have a draft of a taxonomy section for Vespidae in my sandbox; I submitted it as a draft for review but as it is a section for an existing page that may have been the wrong thing to do.

If anyone here had any desire or ability to check it over, that would be much appreciated. Errantsorbus (talk) 03:40, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi all,

I've uploaded some pictures:

• File:Bee_on_blackberry_blossom.jpg
• File:Hummel auf Löwenzahnblume.jpg
• File:Hummel landet auf Blume.jpg

Can someone help with the identifications?

Thanks, --Slashme (talk) 19:08, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

The third image seems to be Bombus lucorum, or the white-tailed bumblebee. I'll have to look into the other two images however. Rubikitty (talk) 18:42, 21 November 2025 (UTC)
