This is true. Still, the [http://www.fotonatura.ro/gallery/d/11138-2/Anguis-fragilis2.jpg striking blue color] of ''A. fragilis ''seemed interesting enough to warrant a 'trivia' note. A<span style="font-weight:normal;">nd obviously all of the names could not refer strictly to binomial nomenclature, as there are no unicorns (save for the </span>''Rhinoceros unicornis''<span style="font-weight:normal;">, which is notably not a horned horse, but, well, a rhino, lol).

:The shade of blue being used seems way closer to that of a [http://www.damyantiwrites.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/white-cobra.jpg?w=300 white cobra], in my eyes...still, even if the Anguis lizard is being mentioned, the note shouldn't claim that "Anguis refers to a genus of lizard". I would word it as something like "While 'Anguis' is the Latin word for 'snake', it is also the name of a genus of legless lizards..." Because the emblem makes it clear SE meant the Latin word anguis, or "snake". It's an interesting note, yes, but it shouldn't take precedence over the primary meaning.{{SUBST:KrytenKoroSig}} 14:23, April 14, 2016 (UTC)

:If Vulpes is the actual NA spelling, then we should move it without redirecting. -[[User:Rikki21|'''<span style="font-family:Script MT;color:#B452CD;font-size:4">Rikki</span>]][[User talk:Rikki21|<span style="color:#FF0066;font-size:4">21</span>]]''' 00:10, 14 June 2016 (PDT)
