Equus quagga is the scientific name for which animal?
Quagga plains zebra, the trinomial name for the quagga becomes "E. quagga quagga" under this scheme, and the other subspecies of plains zebra are placed under "E. quagga", as well. Historically, quagga taxonomy was further complicated because the extinct southernmost population of Burchell's zebra ("Equus quagga burchellii", formerly "Equus burchellii burchellii") was thought to be a distinct subspecies (also sometimes thought a full species, "E. burchellii"). The extant northern population, the "Damara zebra", was later named "Equus quagga antiquorum", which means that it is today also referred to as "E. q. burchellii", after it was realised they were the same taxon.
Quagga catshark of the Indian Deep-sea Fishes in the Indian Museum", published in 1899. He assigned the new species to the genus "Scyllium" (a synonym of "Scyliorhinus") and named it after the quagga ("Equus quagga quagga") because of their similar color patterns. Later authors moved this species to the genus "Halaelurus". Only nine quagga catshark specimens have been recorded. In addition to Alcock's type specimen, four males were trawled from off the eastern Somali coast by the research ship RV "Anton Bruun" in 1964. Four more individuals, two male and two female, were found amongst the contents of commercial fishing trawls conducted
