WP:PTM. None of these species' articles mentions that it is called a "bullata". – Laundry Pizza 03  ( d c&#x0304; ) 21:40, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep either as a disambiguation page or as an entry on the Latin word bullata and the many species named using the terminology. FloridaArmy (talk) 21:53, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment. There are a lot of these - see Category:Taxonomy disambiguation pages - but they are, as the nom has noted, technically speaking partial title matches. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:38, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Should they be list articles instead? If something has a category doesn't that indicate it's listworthy? FloridaArmy (talk) 23:08, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Some of them are like this article (common last name, e.g. Febrifugum), some have a common first name (e.g. Erythrocarpus) and some are legitimate dab pages (e.g. Pholidota (disambiguation)), so no. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:21, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete, invalid dab page since none of these species are ever referred to as a "bullata". However, considering a genus is the primary topic, it would probably make sense to link to List of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names via a hatnote and add this term there. &mdash;Xezbeth (talk) 11:01, 20 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. Species names never stand alone. They are always accompanied by the genus name (or an abbreviated genus name). A hatnote to an entry at List of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names would serve readers better. Plantdrew (talk) 01:10, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
