Eucommia jeffersonensis, Eucommia rolandii

  • Articles are new, hook is short enough and the fact is verified. Articles are 2643B and 2190B, respectively. However, there is a bit of prose duplicated between the two articles, and if that is subtracted, I'm not quite sure if the 1500-character minimum would be met. Also, the hook is somewhat dull. The latter issue isn't a huge concern (dull hooks are not uncommon at DYK), but taken together, I wouldn't be comfortable giving this a tick yet. Sasata (talk) 05:57, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Unfortunately the duplication is a little unavoidable since both species were described at the same time by the same authors, I guess I could add more for each if I get more technical with the description sections.--Kevmin § 06:27, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
  • I have expanded the description sections for both the leaf species and the fruit species. This should remove the possibility of not meeting the 1500 character limit.--Kevmin § 20:26, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Ok, article length is no longer an issue. Sasata (talk) 21:06, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
