The result of this discussion was to Merge following Wikipedia:Silence and consensus rule as no further discussion held. Zakhx150 (talk) 13:58, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Propose that the small amount of content in Australian spider beetle be merged into here as the parent article. Classification systems using the scientific name predominate in WP, the existence of seperate articles under scientific name and common name is confusing.
