[edit] "The" Engrailed?
Wouldn't this species properly be called the "engrailed moth"?
And what is with the emphasis on the definite article in the title? Anything can be "engrailed" (the word means something with edges engraved with curved notch patterns, giving the appearance of serration). 71.245.8.24 18:42, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Naming conventions for British moths are charmingly archaic - not all sources include the definite article as an integral part of the common name but most do and absolutely none add the word "moth" to the common name. As for capitalization, that's opening a can of worms.... Richard Barlow 08:46, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
