Prince Florian is a clearly a young Wiggler

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.

Wonder

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. 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. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 13:21, September 4, 2023 (EDT)
