Corythucha ciliata[edit]
Sycamore lace bug
... that the sycamore lace bug (pictured) was first observed in Italy in 1964 and has since spread to much of Southern and Central Europe?

Solid article on a small creature, on few but good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and stunning! - The hook is ambiguous, and needs rephrasing. It reads as if the bug was first observed ever in Italy. Perhaps say where it came from and then just "in Europe"? - Article (no requirements, just thoughts): someone new to a topic may want a link on lace bug, - yes, I understand that it's the family, linked a bit later, but would there be a different solution? Oklahoma comes as a surprise, - I guess observations were made there, - then say so? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:32, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

- How about one of these? Oklahoma is just an example, and is mentioned because the time the insect takes to develop depends on the temperature and other factors. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:46, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Thank you, I like ALT1 better, for chronology. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:50, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
