Does this Latin name mean what I think it does?

Lanea Cunicula.





Further to my last question - which no one answered (What is "fluffy bunny" in Latin), I came up with Laneus (woollen, downy, fluffy) Cuniculus (rabbit).





So if I'm right, Lanea Cunicula would mean (female) fluffy bunny.


Does that sound right?

Does this Latin name mean what I think it does?
Just be careful using that, since cunicula had another meaning in Latin, one that still exists in English as a four letter word starting with the same three letters.
