Category talk:Xestia c-nigrum

The Latin Taxon name, usually so exhaustively percise and written in full, strikes me as perhaps not unheard of but awkward. I am left wondering what the "C" in "C-nigrum" means. The discoverer namesake Carl (first name? Then why not changed to Latin form with a K)? Though not Latin; Cutworm? Character?. Something in simple Latin like "cis". Could it be simply the letter C, and why I wonder? Nagelfar (talk) 00:20, 20 June 2021 (UTC)(talk) 00:08, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
