Hemolymph only exists in organisms with an open circulatory system, so since both articles are so short, I suggest we merge the two. Dave (talk) 23:03, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. It will make the information easier to access. TheLimbicOne 23:12, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unless we have tons of info to add, we could merge both articles into circulatory system (which already has a section on open circulatory systems).

Experts needed

Contrary to the comments above, hemolymph should NOT be part of circulatory system, and should have its own article--even if it is short. Experts on the subject are needed, however. Chiss Boy 23:13, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Colossal squid hemolymph?

One of the scientists involved with the dissection of the colossal squid specimen in New Zealand referred to hemolymph as "the squid’s blue, copper-based ‘blood’". Can a knowledgeable editor double check that squids do in fact have hemolymph, and if so, can the article be amended to include more than just insects? I don't know the first thing about biological systems. Also, the chemistry of hemolymph (if in fact copper-based) should be discussed. --BlueCanoe (talk) 00:17, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

B-Class criteria checklist

The following checklist is posted with the intent of determining whether this article meets the six B-Class criteria:

Supporting materials

Does the article contain supporting materials where appropriate? Illustrations? Diagrams? Infobox?
