This interesting game contains a variety of unusual leapers. Michael Howe's Universal Chess calls the (3,3) leaper 'Jerboa' and the (0,3) leaper 'Lark', but these names did not catch on. Glen Overby's Beastmaster Chess is another variant with many leapers, including the 'Wyvern', a combination (3,3) and (4,2) and (5,1) leaper.

Christine: to continue an old conversation of ours: the Piececlopedia has entries for the 'Carpenter' (D+N) and the 'Kangaroo' (A+N).
