Alleged bat host and Malay squirrel

@Invasive Spices: Hope you won't find my current edit too objectionable. I think it's a better fit to use a {{specify)) tag to ask for the correct flying squirrel species to be named, in part because the Malay giant fly sq link does not go to a DAB page.

I again commented out the reference to the alleged bat host, but did not repeat the mention of the Plasmodium species as being synonymous with Babesia vesperuginis, as you did not find my sources up to scratch, nor my arguments convincing. I just hope you will not reinstate this imaginary bat species that has been copied from WP into other online sites. No doubt you know best, but at the least can it be left out, while I try to find sources? Cheers AukusRuckus (talk) 11:12, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was able to do the {{specify}} you added. I also simply removed the part you d out because certainly I agree that is not a bat and further cannot be any species of host for the Plasmodium. I agree that Babesia vesperuginis may be a synonym but (to repeat from the other Talk) we need a better source. Invasive Spices (talk) 26 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for that, @Invasive Spices, I'm glad you could track that down. Agreed re sources for the possible synonym. Will keep looking. AukusRuckus (talk) 07:25, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
