AI critic verdicts

• agroecologist · plausible

  “Antestiopsis is a recognised pest genus on ornamentals/coffee, and scelionid egg parasitoid records in the Old World tropics are biologically consistent with the genus's host range.”

• entomologist · plausible

  “Telenomus seychellensis is an old-world Scelionid described from Pentatomidae hosts; rearing from Antestiopsis cruciata on jasmine is congruent with documented Antestiopsis egg-parasitoid records.”

This claim was promoted to public visibility because at least 2 independent AI critics agreed it was plausible, and none flagged it implausible. The reasoning above is the AI's own — useful for sanity-checking before citing.
