Subspecies are not inherently notable, while species are. Author declines to merge to the species article. -

- There are many subspecies based articles. If you want to remove them the why not remove all of them? See Category:subspecies

- As I said, subspecies are not inherently notable. That doesn't mean no subspecies are notable, just that the notability of a subspecies must be demonstrated. Your argument is
WP:WHATABOUTISM
and that doesn't fly here. -

- Merge
to
Amantia peruana
, as with
Amantia peruana peruana
. There isn't any new information in each subspecies article that isn't in the species article, except an unsourced sentence about etymology. It would be great to see additional information about the subspecies, but it would still be more appropriate for a merged article presenting all the information in one place rather than three separate articles with a high level of duplication.

- Merge
per
Mgp28
's rationale, but I think
WP:PM
would have been a better venue for this.

- @
UtherSRG
:
Just because someone wrote the first version of a page doesn't mean they
WP:OWN
it. They can't unilaterally reject merging it, any more than they can unilaterally reject its deletion.
