Need some commas? Wikipedia is often woefully deficient in commas. To that end, we here at Spikelandia have converted one of our many farmer’s fields over to the cultivation of commas. Help yourself. Pick your own!! → go here! ←

Carpocoris purpureipennis is a species in the shield bug family, Pentatomidae . With a length of 11–13 millimetres (0.43–0.51 in), its body color varies from purple or reddish-brown to yellowish. The pronotum angles are black and the pronotum usually shows short longitudinal black stripes, while the scutellum may have some contrasting black spots. The insect's antennae are black and its legs are orange. Both the adult bugs and their nymphs are polyphagous . Adults mainly feed on juices of Cirsium arvense and nectar of Leucanthemum vulgare . These images show top and bottom views of a C. purpureipennis nymph.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
Tip of the day...
List building
There are three basic steps to building a topic list for Wikipedia: the first is to search Wikipedia to make sure it doesn't already have a list on the subject. The second step is to hunt down every word you can find on the subject, from your own memory, books, web directories, dictionaries, etc. Surround each term with double square brackets, and save the page.
Because Wikipedia has become so extensive, don't be surprised if most or even all of the links turn out blue (those are live links, each leading to an article on Wikipedia). Dead-end links are red, but don't remove them, because they show what articles Wikipedia is missing — anyone can click on a red link to create an article on that topic. The third step is checking each live article in the list for links to related topics. When you find one, add it to the list.
