The Latin name for the Southern Hairy Nosed Wombat is "Lasiorhinus latifrons."
The lasiorhinus latifrons, commonly known as the southern hairy-nosed wombat, derives its name from its physical characteristics and habitat. "Lasiorhinus" comes from Greek, meaning "hairy nose," referring to the distinctive hair-covered snout of the animal, while "latifrons" is derived from Latin, meaning "broad forehead," highlighting its noticeable facial structure. This naming reflects both the wombat's appearance and its classification within the broader group of wombats.
According to the links below in carbon-dating research, it is likely that Alces latifrons (Broad-fronted moose; Latin name is "Cervalces latifrons" in Wikipedia, which has an outdated source of 1980 confirming this: taxonomic naming would have changed since then) was a predescessor to today's modern moose.

The closest relative to the Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat is the Southern Hairy-nosed Wombat, judging by their scientific names. There are, in fact, three species of wombats which live in Australia. They are the Common wombat (Vombatus ursinus), the Northern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus krefftii) and the Southern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus latifrons).
