Suggestions:

    - Add list of species with information that is specific to each
    - Add a picture of the phylogeny (assuming you can do that without breaking copyright rules. Maybe you can generate one yourself?)
    - Add more about the ecology
    - Add citations for phylogeny, taxonomy, and species info

Great job with this page! Some comments and suggestions:

Make sure you add internal links to other wikipedia pages whenever you can. For example, in the Pollination section, I've bolded words in the first sentence that you could link to, because they have their own pages: "The Melastomataceae is a large tropical plant family characterized by buzz pollination. " Please read back through your page and make sure you add these internal links wherever it's appropriate. In the Description, words like herbaceous and perennial can definitely be linked to other pages.

In the Taxonomy section, you need to include the references as citations using the proper citations format, and with a link that goes to the citations at the bottom of the page. Elsewhere on the page this is done correctly, but not in this section; same for Molecular Phylogeny. Also, the subgeneric taxonomy that you include in sentence form in this section would be better if you included it in the species list at the bottom, but putting each of the species into their appropriate groupings. See Jose's page on Noctuidae, down at the bottom in his Systematics section, for a really nice example of how to do this. Then take this information out of this section, since it will be included below. In the Phylogenetics section, please discuss specifically whether the phylogeny supports the morphologically-based subgeneric classification, or if additional changes will need to be made in the future to make them match.

You did very nice work on this page - great pictures, too!
