- Article is nearly good to go. But I think two essential points of clarification are needed. The cited source is a 33-page academic article. Either the citation itself, or the
{{rp}}template should be used to clearly indicate the exact page or pages the commensal names are referenced on. The lack of any wikilinks from common names of the commensals used in the hook make it very difficult to confirm accuracy of that hook. For example, "pea crab" is linked within the DYK article to a page about Pinnotheres pisum, but the cited source does not indicate this taxon is a commensal of the DYK species, O. erythrogrammon as far as I can tell. In fact, P.pisum is not mentioned in the cited source at all, except in the references). The taxonomic names and wikilinks used within the article need to have more precise referencing to the source, and be properly wikilinked to target pages at the most appropriate taxonomic level, and the common names used in the hook needs to be similarly wikilinked to the correct level of groups, too, before this is ready to go.

- @Nick Moyes: Thank you for the review. I have reduced the page range of the relevant source. Most of the wikilinks in the article go to the most relevant Wikipedia article, but I have changed the link for the pea crabs. I don't intend to wikilink the list of commensals in the hook because that would give a "sea of blue" and readers can go to the article if they want to know more about them.

OK, now good to go. After a complex search of the citation, I can confirm all taxonomic groups wikilinked by common group name are indeed listed in the article. The latter could - and indeed should - be enhanced by naming the individual commensal species by the scientific names, even if left as redlinks. However, that doesn't stop this DYK from now meeting the criteria. Thanks, Nick Moyes (talk) 01:20, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
