Remember, Xenomorph isn't an actual name. All it means if I recall is "strange-shape" in latin. It's like the equivilent to U.F.O not automatically being an flyingsaucer.

So the novel clears this up by giving the creature a real name.

Don't worry, I didn't know about this until recently either. are you saying that the Xeno's species as a whole is that, or just this particular variation of it (i.e Tarakatan Xeno)?
