I edited out:

The Nyctalope is mentioned in passing in Jules Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea in Chapter 5, in which Aronnax notes, "...and even nyctalopes, whose faculty of seeing in the darkness multiplies their chances a hundredfold, would have had enough to do to gain the prize..."

Because 2.000 Leagues Under the Sea was written at least forty years before the first Nyctalope story, and because nyctalope is simply a term for animals that can see in the dark. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.103.3.244 (talk) 20:56, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This part confused me:

"First appearing in 1911 (or 1908, if one consider Leo Saint-Clair's father, Jean Saint-Clair)"

Who are the Saint-Clairs, and how do they fit into this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.2.92.44 (talk) 13:59, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
