I'm working on a realm inhabited by humanoid air, earth, fire, and water elementals. Thus, I have a question about the structure of their scientific names. They translate as follows: (Air) Homo sapiens aer
(Earth) H. s. terra
(Fire) Sapiens ignis homo
(Water) H. s. aqua
I know switching fire to H. s. ignis is grammatically incorrect, but would that be acceptable in this case? By the way, I translated "wise flame man" as well and got "homo sapiens flamma."
