General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, neutral and plagiarism free. Hook is cited and interesting - although I wonder if it might be 'hookier' if it was flipped i.e. ... that a venomous ... was discovered by Jill Yager? and put her at the end. I hesitated on the sourcing, as (although I not doubt her notability) it felt a little sparse on secondary material. There's a mention here & I think mentioning she has an eponymous species would be good to, see. I'd like to see a link in the article to her Wikispecies entry too (but that's just me being extra). Overall, great addition! Lajmmoore (talk) 20:31, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

Lajmmoore I can add those later today, and I also found this. I'm not sure about flipping it, but I have no strong opinion either way. SL93 (talk) 20:48, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
Lajmmoore I added more to the article. SL93 (talk) 02:18, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
