@Bomapoodle: Hello and welcome to DYK! Unfortunately, the hook might not be a good fit for DYK as it's somewhat specialist, meaning unless someone is well-versed in biology they might not necessarily get what the hook is trying to say. I would suggest proposing a hook or two that's targeted more towards readers who may not known much about biology. In addition, the current hook is also confusing: it's not clear that Euwallacea validus is actually a beetle rather than a fungus, a possible misinterpretation given the wording.

The nominator has not edited since the day of the nomination, and the WikiEdu course they were part of has ended its Wikipedia part. As it is unlikely for them to return, there no longer appears to be a path forward for the nomination. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
