Rename?[edit]

Debate has been going on in the scientific world as to whether or not this phylogenetic group should be considered a species in its own. Not only does the article not mention this, but recent genetic findings now make biologists tend on the separate species side. The French wikipedia has it named Acris blanchardi. To the extent of my knowledge, I think it should be right to rename this page Acris blanchardi and if for whatever reason it shouldn't be so, at least have an inter-wiki consensus of some sort on the name of this group (i.e. make the French wikipedia adopt Acris crepitans blanchardi). It will be quite the awkward thing on Wikidata if some languages adopt the species status and others only the subspecies'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicolas M.

It is actually fairly common for articles on different language Wikipedias to have different names. Can you point to some sources for this scientific debate? Dana boomer (talk) 12:09, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Southwestern Ohio[edit]

I was cleaning out a Flower Bed and found one. I had no idea they were endangered. Yittle64 (talk) 09:49, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They are only endangered in some northern states and areas of their range. They are still very common in the south. WiLaFa (talk) 05:25, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
