hi,
  Neville's favorite plant mimbulus mimbletonia is the only magical 
plant that has a name that mirrors Lamrackian system, I mean the 
scientific name of plants and animals. So are the other magical 
plants and animals  scientifically named?
  And this leads me to other things. Students at Hogwarts have 
Herbology which deals with magical plants and Care of Magical 
Creatures which deals with magical animals. But shouldn't they also 
learn something about ordinary animals and plants? Granted they 
don't require to learn muggle ways of doing things but are they so 
sequestered from muggles that they don't even have to know anything 
about plants and animals and other basic things about our planet? 
After all they live on earth don't they?
  They do have Muggle studies as an elective but that subject seems 
to about muggle technologies and organisation rather than natural 
world.
