904:"Forfarella is a poorly preserved genus only known from one single specimen, and it has not been included to date in any phylogenetic analysis or cladogram." Since the first part of the sentence has alreayd been stated, I think you could rephrase it sop that its imperfectness comes afterwards as a cause. For examp0e "Forfarella has not been included in any phylogenetic analysis or cladogram to date due to it only being known from a single, poorly preserved specimen"

960:("do not combine different parts of one source to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by the source"), where a cause and effect is implied by the juxtaposition of the information. So the best we can do is to look at how the source puts it. If it does not put this information close together, we probably shouldn't either?
934:
Yes, it does imply that, but indirectly. I didn't claim anywhere that this is indeed the reason why it has not been added to any phylogenetic analysis; I'm letting the reader figure it out for themselves as the sources don't say it directly. I don't know if I'm making my point understood, but I think
689:
There are only two places where the use of the binomial name is not completely necessary, in the description and in its image. In the image I would prefer to make clear what species it is in case a new one is described and simply because I usually specify it in the images of other articles. This last
919:
Isn't the first part of the sentence then implying that's the reason why it has not been included? That's how I read it, and probably how most would, so maybe "Forfarella is a poorly preserved genus only known from one single specimen" should be removed since it's repetitive anyway, and may create a
1025:"This also suggests that other diploaspidids similar to Diploaspis, such as Achanarraspis or Forfarella, could have specimens from earlier times" It is a bit odd to tay that a taxon has specimen, instead you could say that there could be specimens of these genera from earlier times.

By Dunlop, Anderson and Braddy. I would rather avoid mentioning them until the last paragraph as there is where they are most relevant. I added "in a subsequent study", but maybe if you prefer it, I could use "in a 1999 study"
911:
That is a good idea, but then I would be directly indicating that this is the reason why it has not been included in any phylogenetic analysis. Braddy 2017 just says something like "A number of
Devonian taxa such as and

that removing the first half of the sentence and leaving the rest would make it a bit weird and inadequate for a single paragraph. I think that what we have now is the best that can be achieved.

I wanted to look at the original description before answering this and it turns out that it says that the carapace details are not preserved... I've rewritten the sentence.

Hmm, I think it's best to be consistent for clarity and to make it easier to follow for the reader, unless there is a specific reason to use the binomial.

1095:"It was very small, only reaching 1.7 centimetres (0.67 inches) of length." Should probably come first instead of last in the intro description paragraph.

Because that refers to the fossil, while the rest to the animal. I was not quite sure if it was correct when I wrote that, maybe there is a better way.

I think it is a bit excessive for a genus, and I have only come across very technical definitions that cannot be easily summarized...

Done, I have preferred to change it in the second mention of "single" to avoid altering the link of "type species".
747:"Although the details on its surface are little preserved" Say "Altough few details on its surface are preserved"?
890:"Forfarella coincided with these features" Not sure if coincided is the right word, "possessed these features?"?
661:
Since the focus is the genus, shouldn't you refer to it mainly as
Forfarella instead of the binomial throughout?

I think the sentence is correct, I can only think of "used to swim with actively" and that sounds wrong to me.
