Article date and length fine. Hook appropriately referenced and of appropriate length. Found no evidence of plagarism or close paraphrasing. It was not entirely clear to me how the 2nd reference supported the statements in the article (unless there is only one source of Baltic amber, which was not clear to me), which would leave only 1 reference, but that shouldn't be a problem for an extinct species of insect. In any case, I found and added an additional reference, albeit one that doesn't add much. No images in the article. Rlendog (talk) 15:01, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
