This article is very thorough and well-written. It has a good lead section and interesting information about the fly’s social behavior. The only changes I made were very minor. I added hyperlinks to the first mention of certain words in sections in which they may have been a little out of context for inexperienced readers (habitats, larvae, [insect morphology] on posterior parts, Coelopa, pupation, parasitism). I also changed the formatting of one of the in-line citations that wasn’t showing up correctly as a link. Otherwise, very nice work on this article! Rebeccaspell (talk · contribs) 5 November 2019

This article was well written and well edited! I added a few links to unfamiliar terms and fixed a few spacing issues. I added the fact that the species is also known as seaweed flies in the description because the article refers to them as seaweed flies without letting the reader know that this is a synonym. Also I reworded a couple sentences to make them less ambigous. Besides those thing the article seems well polished and complete. Good job! OstapKukhar (talk) 02:26, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is an interesting fly! I added an image of Fucus to this article since it is a main food resource for this fly. I also italicized genus and species names for Coelopa pilipes and other flies in the reference section and one of the images. --Mmhua (talk) 22:21, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Eastern" Europe?

The second paragraph from the top, and the first paragraph and the caption to the map in the section entitled Distribution, refer to a set of countries including Iceland, the UK, France, Belgium, Norway and so on (the only one in eastern Europe being Poland) as "Eastern" Europe. This cannot be correct. Without Poland, the set of countries could reasonably be described as Western Europe. With Poland, only Europe is correct. Or am I missing something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abaddon~enwiki (talk • contribs) 03:27, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
