Article created within the last seven days, is over the required prose size and has no copyvio concerns. Hook has an inline citation to a reliable source and the user has supplied a QPQ review to meet the requirement. Good to go. Kosack (talk) 11:55, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote this, but I honestly don't see what's hooky about it. Yoninah (talk) 18:07, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Sorry for the slow response, I have been in hospital. This is a common squid species that lives in mid-water but about the biology of which little is known. So discovering its eggs among the kelp was a step forward in understanding its biology. I doubt its eggs had even been identified previously. Very little is known about many deep sea and even coastal organisms as compared to terrestrial species. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:46, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
