Thorax (insect anatomy) → Thorax (arthropod anatomy) – Among arthropods not only insects have thoraxes, but also crustaceans and trilobites. And their anatomy is very similar. Look also at the interwikis. The Penguin Dictionary of Biology differentiates between thorax of "terrestrial vertebrates" and thorax of arthropods. Actually Polychaeta also have thorax, but I think that their anatomy is quite different from arthropod anatomy and better to keep this article for arthropods only.

• Support. Article already mentions other arthropods. This is a far better scope. Andrewa (talk) 05:58, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
