Thanks for your ID mariajo, I have updated the headings. I added the "de" because that kept showing up when I googled it to find the English name - manchado/a can be speckled (birds), spotted (animals) or stained, dirty, soiled etc., for other things which all mean different things in English! No wonder I have trouble translating!
