Comments

I moved the following text from the main article pending a source citation and a disambig. Ian Cairns (talk) 12:42, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dogs of Newcastle

Also the famous sister & brother to the combination of dogs in Newcastle, Australia.

Future disambiguation

Balius Guérin 1857 (a handsome fungus beetle) is the replacement name for Olenus Dejean, 1835 n.n. ex Thomson, 1857, because the latter is a junior homonym of Olenus Dalman, 1927 (a trilobite).^[1]^[2] Both its species, B. minimus and B. longanimis were later included in the genus Trycherus.^[3]

Balius is also the name of one of the dogs that attacked Actaeon. I feel there should be a note in the article mentioning it or a disambiguation page. -RaidRexx (talk) 16:15, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
