The article Goliathus orientalis is acceptable for DYK, being new enough and long enough, neutral and without copyvios. I found the fact in the hook by going to page 3 of the source. Goliathus regius is not acceptable for DYK because it is largely identical to the other article and if you discounted the duplicated material it would be much too short.

- How about this:
- ALT1: ... that in captivity, the larvae of the beetle Goliathus orientalis (pictured) can be fed on commercial dog or cat food? -- Rcej (Robert) – talk 06:40, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
The single article now nominated is new enough and long enough. The ALT1 hook has an inline citation (page 3 of the source) and the image is appropriately licensed. The article is neutral and I detected no close paraphrasing. Good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:09, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
