<upd_detl>if capitalized, it commits a category error.  "Clione" refers to a genus (i.e., it's the proper name of a taxon; in Japanese, クリオネ属) not to individual organisms that belong to the genus.  at best, they would be "cliones" (uncapitalized), assuming that this genus name is in fact used as the common name of the organisms.  the original uncapitalized gloss was correct.  also, the gloss should not say it refers to the genus, since the genus name in Japanese is クリオネ属.  this is a member of the genus</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I capitalised "Clione" because I assumed it did refer to the genus (in addition to the species Clione limacina). I realise now that can't be right (because there's no 属 after クリオネ).
That being said, I'm still not sure what クリオネ actually refers to. The jwiki article suggests it's a common name for species of genus Clione, but according to daijr, it *only* refers to Clione limacina, in which case the gloss should be "common clione".
Even if Wikipedia is correct, I'm not seeing any evidence that "Clione" refers to anything other than the genus. It appears to be always capitalised.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I guess if it's only "esp. of species Clione limacina" it can be just "clione".</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>GG5 has "Clione limacina" too, but doesn't gloss it as "clione".</upd_refs>
