==Star Wars== An Imperial Star Destroyer named Manticore shows up in the ''Jedi Academy'' trilogy (which sucks) aping the earlier established ISD [[Chimera|Chimaera]]'s name. What's interesting about this is the trilogy also stated the Manticore was a supposedly extinct beast that was since proven to be an archeological hoax/mistake that people still thought was cool enough to name things after anyways. While the trilogy is bad enough to dismiss this as more of Anderson's bad writing [[Wikipedia:Archaeoraptor|this kind of thing happens]] [[Wikipedia:Hadrosaurus#Classification|more than you think]] [[Wikipedia:Apatosaurus#Discovery_and_species|in real world palaeontology]], especially if you count young and adult dinosaurs being mistaken for separate species, and plenty of [[Dinosaur]]s known to be fake still show up in fiction.
