While "Vulpes" and "Ursus" are genuses, "Leopardos" is not --- if it was based on the binomial names, it would be "Panthera" or "Pardus". The "Anguis" lizard, which looks like a snake, is named as such in the same way a starfish or a saber-toothed tiger are named for what they look like, rather than what they are -- it uses the Latin word for "snake". As made clear by its cobra emblem, the Anguis union is clearly named after the Latin word, not the modern binomial nomenclature. It's following the same naming patterns as Lux and the Foreteller names, being taken from simple Latin words.{{SUBST:KrytenKoroSig}} 04:45, April 14, 2016 (UTC)
