need for squash bug figure, taxonomic conventions

Latest comment: 3 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Regarding the eighth figure (of a sphecid ostensibly investigating some squash bugs), note that the adjective corresponding to "sphecidae" is "sphecid." It's a nice video but might be better on a page for the wasp species. I wouldn't add to much to a page devoted to a group that is not taken very seriously, on account of paraphyly. ~2026-42149-56 (talk) 12:09, 30 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
