... that the sea slug Philinopsis depicta has no
radula or jaws, and is thought to protrude its foregut and suck up its prey whole? Source: "Philinopsis depicta ne possède pas de radula. Son système buccal et digestif est spécifique, dépourvu de mâchoires, de plaques stomacales... Il ressemble à un tractus musculaire dont l'extrémité est dévaginable et lui permet d'aspirer ses proies, de les engloutir probablement entières !"
Hi
Cwmhiraeth, review follows: article created 6 November; article exceeds minimum length and is well written; sources used look to be reliable for the subject matter and I found no evidence of overly close paraphrasing; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article, the source appears to support this statement (based on my rudimentary French and Google Translate); a QPQ has been carried out. I can see no problems here -
