Happy to have a look through. Josh Milburn (talk) 09:58, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
- "bryophytes, or plants." Bryophytes are plants, aren't they?
- True that. Change to vascular plants. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "texture of the conk" What's a "conk"?
- Term now introduced and linked in the lead. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "subhymenium (the fertile spore-producing surface)" Is your definition not of hymenium rather than subhymenium? Also, a link to hymenium somewhere in this discussion would be good.
- Good catch, fixed. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial small-subunit rDNA sequences suggests that B. nobilissimus belongs in the hymenochaetoid clade, closely related to the genera Oxyporus and Schizopora." This is unclear- it's not obvious what is "closely related".
- Tweaked for clarity. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Perhaps a link somewhere (in a see also, even) to Phellinus ellipsoideus, which is now recognised as the largest polypore species, would be nice?
- Done. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "Other bryophytes" Why other?
- Not sure ... removed. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- What do you mean by "mature layers"?
- Copyedited this bit. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "simple-septate", "fascicles" and "thin-walled" strike me as jargon- links or explanations would be good
- Done. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- You're a little inconsistent on tree names- sometimes you use "common name (Specific name)", sometimes "Specific name (common name)" and sometimes just "Specific name". Consistency would be good.
- Done. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- "Species have been found at elevations of 1,000–4,000 feet (300–1,220 m)" Did you mean "specimens", here?
- "meaning pre-disturbance surveys and site management are needed." I'm not keen on this- do you perhaps mean something like "...are required before people can [whatever]" or "meaning [agency] has judged that pre-disturbance..."
- Added explanatory bit. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
Pictures and sources check out. A really interesting species! I've made a few edits- please double-check them. Josh Milburn (talk) 10:29, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
- Edits are fine. Thanks for the review Josh. Sasata (talk) 16:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Great stuff, as ever. Promoting now. Josh Milburn (talk) 16:59, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
