Species named like this are called “autonymous”. Like rattus rattus or puffinus puffinus.

shoutout for using thorn and eth, but man using just eth as a short for “the” took me a couple seconds to figure out.
It’s borrowed from Shavian’s idea of short handing certain grammar words. Were I a bolder man I’d be doing ð same for for, but, and, not, so, to, and oðers, along wið a host of orþographic reforms.
