More general

Per doi:10.3853/j.2201-4349.69.2017.1666, the neuston is more general term over the pleuston. --Snek01 (talk) 20:20, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. The overwhelming majority of freshwater ecologists use neuston. I'll make some changes Dmccabe (talk)

The content is not very comprehensive because it does not really tell readers what exactly accouts for the species as Pleuston. Content starts to talk about examples of the species but does not really introduce the readers what the species is and about. After lead introduces readers where do pleuston live, maybe adding something about where the name pleuston come from and how is that related to this species. Just a few examples of the species is not clear enough for readers to know how many different kinds of species are there in Pleuston. Also we don't know which category pleuston stands at in the animal kingdom of biology--Zhengyizhilu (talk) 22:21, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
