List of animals named after the color red

These animals were named for the colour red on their appearences, just because, or for a word that looks like a red but doesn't mean it. These are only for their English and scientific names. Many animals may be called "red" in a language besides English, but the English name lacks this meaning. These animals are not included. If a word in another language refers to red and the English name uses it, they belong here. Some animals might have a completely foreign-sounding name with the other languages' word for red in the animals' English name, and those belong here, too. Some languages have an animal's name not reference red, but the English name drops in their word for red in the English animal's name anyways. Those belong here.

## Named after red-based objects

Slightly different than a shade of red. Some shades are more about the shade then the item. These words are more about the item, which is red, and the reddish animal is named after the red thing. This can get kind of tricky. Chestnuts are a brown-red thing, but more commonly in animal names refers to the shade. They're not actually being named after the nut. To some extent the same with rusty. They are being named after rust, but "rusty" stands out as a shade. Things like "fire" and "ruby" can be specific shades depending on the person, but they're often being glorified for being like fire or rubies. There's more focus on the object's color they're named after rather than just a random shade of red.

* Fire-breasted flowerpeckers
* Fire-capped tits
* Fire-fronted serins
* Fire-tailed myzornis
* Fire-tailed sunbirds

* Ruby crowned kinglets
* Ruby-crowned tanagers
* Ruby-throated hummingbirds
* Rubythroats
* Ruby-topaz hummingbirds (it's weird seeing a combined word not in adjective form describe its colouration)

**Birds**

* Coal-crested finches The crest is indeed black, but I think the intention is to emphasize the red belly, like a hot coal. Part of the coal is red, but not all of it.
* Coal tits and other creatures named after coal. Black usually, but sometimes red, orange, or white.
* Fire-eyes
* Firethroats
* *Firewood-gatherers Firewood is usually brown, depending on the tree it might be reddish-brown. Firewood burns. Gatherers are not necessarily red.*

## A word that indicates a red pattern

Some patterns, like striped, spots, marbled, will not be here. I've also removed others like painted and tricolor. Any color can be in those patterns. I've left specifically those patterns that not only reference the red, but require the red. Some of these have alternatives. For example, roan can be strawberry (red) or blue. Harlequin can be black and white, or it can be red with black and maybe white. Strawberry can also refer to regular red flecked with smaller spots, like actual strawberries.

**Birds**

* Harlequin antbirds
* Harlequin bats
* Harlequin ducks
* Harlequin quails
* Horned sungems (with sun meaning yellow/gold with orange/red)
* Pied cuckoos
* Sun parakeets

**Mammals**

* Roan antelopes

**Fish**

Strawberry groupers

**Herps**

Strawberry poison-dart frogs

## A word that's culturally associated with red

* Antbirds and antpittas and other ant-birds (Ants generally come in either red(-orange) or black or mixed between those two. So anything with the word ant in it can invoke this sense.)
* Barn owls Barns are viewed as red to Americans. But not all barns are red.
* Christmas Island frigate birds are named after the island, but Christmas is strongly associated with red, white, and green.
* Dawn bats The dawn is associated with red colors amongst others and the fire of the sun.
* Fox sparrows
* Orchard orioles (possibly)
* Olive named animals are usually named after a slight green tinting in their gray or brown. Some are named after olives. Green olives have a spot of red, but most olive-named animals aren't named after the spot.
* Robins (Scientists use the word "robin" to indicate a variety of birds, especially thrushes. However, some people from the U.S and the U.K see robins only as red birds.)
* Rudd's larks (it is a person's name that comes from the word "ruddy".)
* Summer tanagers
* Sunbitterns have dark red eyes and rufous spots on their wings when viewed from above, which could look like suns.
* Topazes are named after a stone. Thus "fiery topaz" and "crimson topaz" are grammatically correct terms to describe red topaz gemstones. But they are hummingbirds.

**Mammals**

* Fox squirrels (also called the eastern fox squirrel or Bryant's fox squirrel) also Mexican fox squirrels
* Reduncinae and its follow ups probably don't mean red, but it looks like red.
* Robbins's tateril (See robins below)
* Sierra de Perijá White-fronted capuchin (I mean, I thought sierra was a shade of red, but it's not named after the shade, but the location.)

*Dogs*

* Irish Setters
* Irish Terriers
* Scottish Deerhounds

*Cattle*

* Scottish Highlands

**Herps**

* Lava desert half-toed geckos
* Spider-Man agamas
* Sunbirds

**Aquatics**

* Candy-scale pygmy goby (a lot of candy is red, typically cherry or strawberry flavored. Will also list here as red-blotched pygmy gobies.)
* Chameleon parrotfishes
* Clownfishes (clowns are associated with red noses, wigs, and lips)
* Daisy parrotfishes (I mean, I think of daisies as soley white, but I guess not everyone does. Red daisies exist.)
* Eclipse parrotfishes
* Kisaki Nothobranch Kisaki means "queen" or "empress" in Japanese, which due to Western influence are associated with red there as well as here.
* Marquesan parrotfishes (This is the only picture I could find of it that shows it as red.)
* Meteor perches (the red streak of a meteor as it crashes to Earth)
* Rusty jobfishes (A "rusty job" means that someone did a job terribly. This is especially true in mechanics and other things which require building something. "He did a rusty job fixing up that car." It's either not referencing the color or its a pun.)
* Spanish Dancer Nudibranch
* Spangled emperors (Likely a reference to the Star-Spangled Banner, the American flag i=of red, white, and blue).
* Stoplight parrotfiishes (Wikipedia says that the name comes from the clear yellow spot which is visible whilst one is diving. But that's a yield/slow down. Other pictures show that there are variations (male/female) of this parrotfish where the bottom is bright red. So it seems like it's up to your own decision right now.)
* Thai gizzard shads (gizzard being an organ in some animals, especially associated with birds. Gizzard is commonly eaten in Asian cuisine, thus red meat.)

**Bugs**

* Apple snails -might be because shaped like an apple. Apples can be green or yellow, but are most famous as red (though the others are well known).
* Clown beetles - (clowns are associated with red noses, lips, and sometimes wigs)
* Firebugs
* Fireflies
* Ladybugs/ladybirds - may have been associated with women as they're most famously red. Red being the color of lipstick and sexy dresses.
* Red velvet ants (red velvet is remarking upon a certain kind of texture of a soft, fuzzy fabric. Also red velvet cake.)
* Red velvet mites, see red velvet ants above.
* Roesel's bush-crickets might refer to mahogany colored in his name, but I'm not sure.
* Tomato hornworms do have a small bit of red on them, but their name comes mostly from their eating habits.

## Religious

* Vermillion Bird
* According to Wikipedia, several horses independantly named Aithon are owned by several Greek deities. The name means burning or shining and denotes a fiery-red color.
* Red-buttocked horse monkeys are both a species and an epithet given to a specific individual by Buddha in Journey To The West. To my knowledge they are not worshipped in Asia, but they do play a part in Sun Wukong's backstory.

## Fictional

* Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer
* Clifford, The Big Red Dog
* Little Red Hen

## Red in a different language

Animals that are called "red" in English, but the word for red is from another langauge. Scientific names are below, this is for common names.

* Rothschild's zokor, *Eospalax rothschildi*
* Rubidus [butterflies] (the common name for a hybrid butterfly between viceroys and red-spotted purples.

## Scientific names

Scientific names can contain words meaning red, often under latinized forms no matter what language they originally came from. There are also many Latin-origin words for red, especially various shades of reddish brown. There many Latin words and Latinized words related to red things. Most of the other categories of red-naming-basis apply above but are here if it refers to their scientific names. **These are listed alphabetically by their order for the red-word listed.** Scientific names with the common name to the right of it indicates that it's already here in this wiki above, as the common name relates to a red thing as well as its scientific name.
