• Do you know why specifically it was named after Temminck?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  20:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • I can't read Danish, but I don't think Lund said. Enwebb (talk) 14:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
• "though at least one author considers it monotypic with no subspecies" it seems you're only talking about Eger, so you just say Eger considers it monotypic. Also, who's Eger?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  20:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Judith Eger, mammalogist and the person who wrote that part of Mammals of South America. Revised phrasing. Enwebb (talk) 14:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
• "this is particularly noticeable in skull measurements" do you have the skull measurements showing this?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  20:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Adding more information from the source to say why the authors noted skull dimorphism. Enwebb (talk) 14:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
• define calcars   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  20:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Done. Enwebb (talk) 14:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
• "groups of up to three individuals" this implies a max of 3   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  20:29, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Rephrased to better match language of the source. 3 or fewer is typical, but larger numbers have been found ("M. temminckii usually lives in small groups of up to three individuals (Vizotto and Taddei 1976; Barquez et al. 1999; Siles 2007). Groups of 10–15 individuals roosting below the bark of white saman trees"). Enwebb (talk) 14:00, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
• Where do the 3 subspecies live?   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  14:45, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
