One of my biggest pet peeves ever is seeing people going out of their ways to make cool-looking scientific specimens for an imaginary (or real) species and then capitalizing the specific epithet. Please do this: "Tyrannosaurus rex" and not this: "Tyrannosaurus Rex". And also set the scientific name in italics, wherever that's possible :)
