Qcne (talk) 23:01, 6 October 2023 (UTC)Medetera reference at Condylostylus longicornis
editHello! Thank you for creating an article on this fly species! But, can I ask about your use of Zootaxa article "Medetera (Diptera, Dolichopodidae) of Sri Lanka" as a reference? I cannot find any mention of Condylostylus longicornis at all in this article, so I'm not sure why you've cited it here, unless I've missed something?

- Hi! I went to try and check the article again and I was completely able to find how I had accessed the original text, so I think I may have accidentally linked the wrong article. I went through the (very limited, haha) search results for the species on google scholar and I I've found the one I actually intended to link, so I'll update that now. Thanks for checking!

- Ah, no wonder then! No problem, glad to help. Monster Iestyn (talk) 22:46, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
