... that the habitat of Aquatica ficta is still water and rice paddies, while that of Aquatica hydrophila is fast-flowing streams and ditches? Source: "In contrast to the preceding three species, L. ficta is a typical still water dweller. Paddies are the most common habitats in Taiwan." "The larvae usually live in ditches or small creeks with shallow and clear water, fast current and cobble benthos." "Lampyridae: A synopsis of aquatic fireflies"

Articles meet criteria on newness and expansion, respectively, as well as neutrality, sourcing, and plagiarism. The hooks are cited inline and short, but I find ALT1 to be more interesting to a general audience. QPQs have been completed. Sounder Bruce 03:27, 23 December 2017 (UTC)
