AryKun Many thanks as always. Chiswick Chap (talk) 05:59, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
The lead's a bit thin; it's basically just the definition and Pouyanne's original observation. I'd add some more details about the details of the phenomenon from In orchids.
Added.
"three species, a mimic" Should be a (semi?) colon or something.

Edited.
I like the graph, great visual representation.
Thank you.
Do no plants other than orchids show Pouyannian mimicry?
Seems not. If it is one day found in other families, it'll likely be chemical and tactile, not visual.
"One mechanism" mechanism for what?
glossed.
"Floral mimicry...mating signals." this bit seems better suited at the start of Definition.
Rearranged.
"Such plants" Has no referent since previous sentence doesn't mention any specific type of plant.
The earlier mention is "Flowering plants that do not produce such rewards".
"at the population level" Not quite sure what this means, do you mean "at the level of individual populations" or thereabouts?
Yes.
"pollinators involve" to "pollinators involves"
Done.
Any link for sensory trap?
Added.
Not required for GA ig, but I'd add translated titles for the French articles.
Added.
What makes South Coast Orchid Society an RS?
They are specialists in their field, and very unlikely to be lying about the subject.
Refs 1, 3, 6, 11, 12, and 13 look like they have page ranges too long for the claims they're used to cite.
Standard practice when citing scientific papers is just to cite the whole article.
Will spot-check later, that's all I have for now. AryKun (talk) 20:02, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
Many thanks.

AryKun?
