[edit]

"Lusus naturae" does not (just) mean "freak of nature" as used in Teratology. The term has an older and stronger meaning, a one-off, a character who is the only one of his species (like some of Tolkien's Middle-earth folk, Beorn or Tom Bombadil). These certainly aren't anything to do with teratology. Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:33, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
