Banded parrotfish → Notolabrus fucicola – This species has multiple common names and is called different names in different parts of its range, in Australia it seems to be called purple wrasee (see Fishes of Australia https://fishesofaustralia.net.au/home/species/253#summary) and in New Zealand, banded wrasse (see http://www.marinelife.ac.nz/species/928). Fishbase calls it yellow-saddled wrasse and IUCN does not give it a common name. The binomial is clear and unambiguous. Quetzal1964 (talk) 10:21, 18 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Support per WP:COMMONNAME; the scientific name is more commonly used than the vernacular name "banded parrotfish", and I haven't found that any other vernacular names are more commonly used than the scientific name. Scientific name is also more PRECISE, and allows a more CONSISTENT naming system than arbitrarily picking one of several uncommon vernacular names as titles. And per WP:ASTONISH, I see no reason to think that readers searching for any of "blue wrasse, kelpie, New Zealand banded wrasse, purple parrotfish, saddled wrasse, Southern purple wrasse, Southern wrasse, winter bream or yellow-saddled wrasse would be less confused by encountering a scientific name title rather than "banded parrotfish" for whatever vernacular name they might have searched for.
