Turturenhydra addition

I added sections Mating and Reproduction and Parental Care, and I added all the subsections within those sections, including Mating/courtship behavior, Polygyny, Male/male interactions, Reproductive behavior (specific to Allobates femoralis from Central Amazonia), Reproductive behavioral divergence, Female movement and space use, and Tadpole transport. I added information and references about those topics. I added image with the caption "Allobates femoralis on dead leavess"--

Male/Male interactions wording

I think the section on Male/Male interaction is worded pretty weirdly and the section seems like an observation and not a description on how male/male interactions occur. I reworded the section to make it sound more objective and added some extra information. Qazwsx1515 (talk) 22:40, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"when it comes to territorial defense. During the 'courtship march' when an A. femoralis male searches for an ovipostion site, the female can be intercepted by a competing male, which the female will start following. This leads to physical aggression between males that can last about 15 minutes, where eventually, one of the males will leave the oviposition site. It is suggested that visual signals play an important role in male-male aggression. " — Preceding unsigned comment added by Qazwsx1515 (talk • contribs) 22:40, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

Overall, the information on the page looked okay. I fixed a lot of the grammar and sentence structures because I think it was a little too condensed. So I separated long sentences into two or three sentences and changed some of the grammar for it to flow better. I also added a bunch of hyperlinks where I thought it would be useful. One suggestion I would have is that some sections under Mating and Reproduction are still a bit too dense with long paragraphs, but I didn't want to remove useful information so I left them as they were. I also reformatted the Mating and Reproduction section so that all Reproductive Behavior is under one big heading.

Mating and reproduction section

I think that this section definitely has too much information and I think that maybe the subsection on "Reproductive Behavior specific to Allobates femoralis from Central Amazonia" can probably just replace the information in the section on mating/courtship behavior. I'm not quite sure what other information is unnecessary and can be removed. Qazwsx1515 (talk) 05:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

Overall, this page was very well done and informative. I changed the wording of certain sentences in both the description section and the Mating section. I also changed the placement of the conservation status section so that it was placed towards the end of the article to improve flow. I thought the article was well organized and well cited.
