I don't want to start an edit war so I have to ask, why was the species tab on the infobox changed back from "Wiggler" to "catipillar"? His head is shaped like a Wiggler's, his body has segments, heck he keeps badges in a flower on his head, and head flowers are something all Wigglers have.

:You're focused on the head. Look at the ''rest'' of him, which is not Wiggler-like at all beyond resembling a larva (but a totally different one). That "head flower" is just a crown signifying he's the prince of the ''Flower'' Kingdom. So while he ''might'' be a Wiggler, we don't know. He could just resemble one in the same manner Poplins resemble Toads. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 12:12, September 4, 2023 (EDT)
:Clearly everything that resembled a caterpillar ever, including actual caterpillars, ''must'' be a reference to Wiggler. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 13:21, September 4, 2023 (EDT)
::To me, it's more of a "looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck". I'm not opposed to calling this character a sort of Wiggler or based off Wiggler, but this could just be in the body text of the article rather than a confirmation through the species infobox. {{User:Mario/sig}} 13:32, September 4, 2023 (EDT)
:::I don't know that we should be making any definitive species claims without a source. I'd drop it from the infobox entirely and just mention in his character description that he looks like a caterpillar and, as a result, similar to [[Wiggler]].

:To me, Prince Florian also has a similar color scheme to the [[Wiggler (Super Mario Sunshine)|Wiggler]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', which looks like a Wiggler in its red angry form, but green rather than red.

Could anyone check who the VA is? Reminds me of [[Kate Higgins]], but i'm not too sure. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 02:29, October 20, 2023 (EDT)
