^[1] Although in Japanese, the text is written as though the translation should be "Physiogulos," I believe this is an error. The "Physiologus" is a didactic text that describes various animals and plants, both real and fictional, including immortal creatures such as the phoenix.

^[2] The literal translation of "Fukashigi Monogatari" would be something like "Wondrous/Mysterious Story," but Solinus is known for his text Collection of Curiosities, a.k.a. The Wonders of the World, which is taken in large part from Pliny's Natural History.

^[3] Roman de Fauvel is a French poem that translates into the Story of the Fawn-Colored Creature.

^[4] The literal translation of "Hanshizen no Monogatari" is "Unnatural Story"; "The Travels of Sir John Mandeville" describes a great many unnatural things while journeying through various exotic locales, so I suspect that the Japanese version took liberties.
