I'll be reviewing this article. Ucucha 17:11, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- "The type specimens—collected by Smith from Oak Grove, Livingston County, Michigan, in July of 1972—is housed at the University of Michigan conservatum."—plural or singular? Also, is "conservatum" a word? It's not in the OED.
- It's from the source, but I failed to translate from Latin! :) Changed to herbarium (and pluralized). Sasata (talk) 18:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- Are you sure it should be plural? The source says "specimen typicum", not "specimina typica". Ucucha 18:58, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- Changed to singular... I was confused by another holding in the U of M database that pictured two paratypes. Sasata (talk) 19:16, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- "This related grouping of species,"—"This grouping of related species"? Or perhaps just "This grouping"
- Changed to the former. Sasata (talk) 18:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- "Lactarius argillaceifolius var. megacarpus has caps with dimensions from 14 to 27 cm (5.5 to 10.6 in) wide, with acrid-tasting flesh that is up to 3 cm (1.2 in) thick. The gill attachment is adnate"—no citation; looks like you left off in the middle of a sentence, perhaps to write the subsection on varieties a few paragraphs down.
- Yes, that's what happened. I removed this unfinished bit, but added a few more details in the "Varieties" subsection. Sasata (talk) 18:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
Otherwise looking good—as usual. Ucucha 17:22, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick review! Sasata (talk) 18:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the fixes; I'm passing the article now. Ucucha 19:22, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
