* In scientific circles, this is known as a ''tautonym'' when it applies to taxonomic classifications, where the genus and species of an animal have the same name. For example, ''Rattus rattus'' is the rat, ''Bison bison'' is the bison, while ''Puffinus puffinus'' is... the Manx Shearwater. [[
** [[wikipedia:List of tautonyms|Wikipedia has an incomplete -but not small- list of tautonyms.]]
** One that deserves special mention is the Western Lowland Gorilla - ''Gorilla gorilla gorilla''!
