You can use Greek in binomial nomenclature; pegasi referred to as “Equus sapiens pegasus” wouldn’t be out-of-line, I think.

For sake of syntax I am compelled to point out that the tatzlwurm wouldn’t have a trinomial name. The ICZN Code uses trinomial names only for subspecies, to wit, groups of organisms that spend a significant period of time isolated from each other.
 
Ponies might have a trinomial name, and in such a case there would be three subspecies (Earth, Pegasus, and Unicorn). You might also argue that ponies are simply members of a clade (descending from Alicorns) that happen to be able to interbreed (id est, a horse and a donkey). Indeed, I contend that is how ponies would be categorized if they existed on earth.
 
The tatzlwurm, however, seems to be the only extant member of its clade, and so would only have a binomial name.
 
I commend you on a good bit of referential humor, in any case. :)

I get what “terra” and “arcanus” are supposed to be, but I’m not sure what “volaticus” or even “cutii” is derived from. Then again, I’m not very familiar with Latin itself, just all the English words we got from it.
