There is currently a photo on this article. AJona1992 (talk) 00:23, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Someone please upload a photo, with proper permissions. StevePrutz (talk) 16:05, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's impossible at the moment. But if we can find out what the source of the old sketch is, if not Inger 1966, we could perhaps use it. FunkMonk (talk) 22:30, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

DYK says you can't use an ITN item if it was the featured item at ITN

... which this one wasn't. So I nominated it at DYK: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Template_talk:Did_you_know#Articles_created.2Fexpanded_on_July_14

I suggested author credit for Sharktopus, Steveprutz, Scientific29, and Cmglee. If you feel you made a major contribution to this article and I missed you, my apologies -- please go to the DYK nomination and add yourself. $Sharktopus$ ^talk 16:43, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dohhh, I was mistaken. Being "featured" at ITN does not require being the top item with a picture, it just means having the article linked in bold, which a version of this one was, no matter how briefly. Well, anybody who feels like working on a slightly less sexy DYK, as in Timema stick bugs that didn't have sex for a million years (BBC had a story on them), you're very welcome to come play with that one instead.
