size and age ok, free of copyvio, fully referenced, first hook about moths is interesting...I just think the article is a little less conclusive about the moth than the hook (maybe add "suggestive of.." or something to hook...?) QPQ done Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:37, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
- Are you uncertain of the Moth family, or of the cf Antispila part? Labandeira 2002 is a little more open with the wording when talking about the family but still give a fairly confident assessment, and Sohn et al 2012 (which has Labandeira as a coauthor) used a more confident wording and again emphasized cf Antispila.--Kevmin § 15:28, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
