• ... that the bioluminescence of the scale worm Lepidonotus squamatus is a defensive mechanism? Source: " the scales produce bioluminescent light, which can leave a predator with a mouthful of glowing parts. That in turn advertises the unwitting animal’s whereabouts to its own predators."

• Hi, I came by to promote this, and wonder if you could say it in a hookier way, like:

• ALT1: ... that the bioluminescence of the scale worm Lepidonotus squamatus adheres to any predator that feeds on it, making the attacker more visible to its predators? Yoninah (talk) 17:17, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

@Yoninah: How about

• ALT1a: ... that the bioluminescent scales of the worm Lepidonotus squamatus adhere to any predator that feeds on it, making the attacker more visible to its predators?

• Thanks, much better. @Whispyhistory: could you review ALT1a please? Yoninah (talk) 20:39, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

• Hook is in article followed by inline citation and source appears to justify article and hook. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:56, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
