I am not sure whether the assignment is correct. In the German Wikipedia, the article would have to be published under the common name and both the scientific name and the genus name (in the case of a species from a monotypical genus) would have to be linked as redirect. Here I also found such articles (common name = article). At Jaguarundi, both the binominal and the genus name are linked. If this is correct, the article should be moved to Touch Me Not Stick Insect.
On the other hand, there are also articles with monotypical genres that are published under the genus name (see Sungaya). If this is correct, the article should be moved to Epidares. In addition, I don't get the completely superfluous link from Epidares in the taxobox killed. I would appreciate a hint or help in this regard.--Drägü (talk) 05:32, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Drägü. On the English Wikipedia, the article on a species that is the sole member of its genus should be titled after the genus (see WP:MONOTYPICFAUNA); I've moved your page to Epidares. It's relatively uncommon to use common names as the title for insect species articles in my experience unless they are very well known by a particular name. There tends to be a lot of ambiguity in common names and the precision of the scientific name is good. — The Earwig (talk) 05:42, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Earwig, thanks a lot. It seems to me that the better idea is to take the scientific names instead of the often little used common names, which are often only used in a few sources as fantasy names and cause more confusion than clarity. In my early days at German Wikipedia, I was already struck by the fact that this really doesn't always work well, but luckily there are redirects too.--Drägü (talk) 04:35, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
