Actually, it brings to mind the giant spiders.  JKR has said that we 
will be seeing Aragog again.  Perhaps this is a reference to him or 
his spawn?

Well, we normally meet Draco on the Hogwarts Express.  Given the 
events of the last few months, story-time, and depending on what 
happens during the summer, I would not be surprised if Harry and his 
friends (including the DA members) have less than their previous 
tolerance for Draco and his antics.  This may refer to nothing more 
mysterious than Draco, et. al., running their mouths in their usual 
fashion and getting tossed off the train.

This is actually a standard entry form for an adjective in a Latin-
English dictionary.  That is it gives the basic form followed by the 
plural form.  I agree it might be a character name.  Of interest is 
the fact that "Felix" not only means "lucky," but also "happy" (the 
latter being the root of "Feliz Navidad.")

Err, if it's 900 pages long, I hope it's better put together and much 
better edited than the rambling, poorly designed atrocity that was 
OOTP (IMO, of course).
