Talk:Dryas iulia

message: Please someone with experience in lepidopterology check. I have changed it to iulia b/c this seems a bit better supported in sources I find. If correct, please be aware to check what links here and change accordingly, or move page. Dysmorodrepanis 23:17, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Dryas julia gets 10 times as many Google hits as Dryas iulia, for what it's worth.  It seems strange to write iulia, any more than we would write Iulius Caesar.  But I'm not a biologist. —Steven G. Johnson 03:17, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Just a note that on Wikipedia the standard way of writing section headings is in sentence case. That is, the first word is capitalized and subsequent words are not capitalized unless they include a proper noun. That's explained at MOS:HEADINGS in our Manual of Style. Also, scientific names of species and below are italicized. That's done with the two apostrophes before and after, e.g. Dryas iulia is written Dryas iulia (see MOS:LIFE).  SchreiberBike | ⌨  16:16, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Section headings and scientific names of species 

message: This page has a lot of good information! Thank you for making all these edits. I made a few changes, mostly all minor. I moved your paragraph on mimicry into a new section, italicized the species names, changed the section heading from range to distribution, and added an image of the caterpillar! I also re-worded a few confusing sentences but they were all very minor. Great job! Stacey uhm (talk) 8:54, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Minor edits 

message: This is a well-written article with a lot of great information! I just have a few suggestions for improvement. I think more citations could be added in the introductory section (particularly for the last two paragraphs) as well as in the section on interaction with humans. In the adult life cycle section is says “Male butterflies are also known for their mud-puddling behavior, as described above”. Because this information is located in two other areas of the article, I don’t think it is necessary to mention it again within the context of the life cycle. I did not delete the sentence as it is a minor suggestion. It might be interesting to add information on how the butterflies identify their host plant as it was mentioned that they both coevolved. Additionally, more information on how the butterflies evolved to counter the host plant evolution would be helpful.  
I only made a few grammatical changes and changed some sentence structure. Overall it was a great article! Nice job! CR.Tracy (talk) 16:58, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Peer review for behavioral ecology class 

message: Overall, I think that this is a very good article and that you did a great job! You provided a lot of detail and important information that really helps the reader understand this organism well. There were some sentences that were long and confusing, so I suggest making them more clear and easy to follow. I have some suggestions about use of headings and subsections, such as rephrasing “identification” to “description,” and suggest having a separate section for flight patterns, and suggest having subsections in the courtship behavior section. Also, in the “Evolutionary basis of sexual selection and conflict" section, I thought it was great that you explained that there is still discussion about this topic and that it is not completely understood, and it’s great that you present the current opinions about this topic.

thread_title:  Peer Edit Suggestions - for Behavioral Ecology course  

message: Hi! Overall, this is a very solid article. I found it informative, broad in scope, and easy to read. I made some general edits to grammar and sentence structure, simply to add greater clarity to certain sections. My only suggestion would be to add more to the Habitat section, if possible. Nice Job!
