Talk:Paraxenos

some issues for improvement

Sometimes instead of an inline citation there's just a number: relationships of the genera within Xenidae was necessary5. Please convert to inline citation. Otherwise this will become wrong when more sources are added.

In "Taxonomic history" the word "it" is frequently unclear: current definition of genus? older definition?

What is this? The distribution of Paraxenos wasps parasitizing the genus Bembix. It feels like it was accidentally copied from elsewhere; it doesn't make sense here.

I recommend not listing the species formerly in this genus: they would be handled in their own genus article(s).

Morphology section has one citation early but everything after that is unsourced. If all from this source, move citation to the end of the paragraph.

Please italicize species names by putting two ' marks before and after, or using the I button.

What an interesting and extreme life cycle these insects have! Thanks for letting me learn about them. M kuhner (talk) 14:39, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

I've accepted the article because it's basically sound, but it needs some work--issues above, plus there is a discussion of a species no longer in Paraxenos that doesn't really belong here (if you wanted to write an article about that genus, it would be great!) I also recommend cutting the species list to only members of Paraxenos, perhaps with a second list of host species, and not to list species that are no longer in this genus--it's a bit overwhelming. Very cool article, thank you for writing it. M kuhner (talk) 15:03, 2 August 2026 (UTC)
