Leopardo leonado ~ Leopard rampant guardant

About the term 'leopardos leonados' (leopards rampant guardant), [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 99] writes that «it is said of leopards rampant» and shows an example in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; plate 7, figure 138] a shield Azure, with a leopard rampant Argent, looking towards the viewer's face, that is, 'leonado' (rampant guardant), and in this case 'difamado' (cowardly, without a tail).

León leopardado ~ Lion passant guardant

In [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 330] he again emphasizes the term 'leonado' (rampant guardant) when writing that the posture of the leopard «is never rampant, like that of the Lion, but passant; because if ever the Leopards are put rampant, they are blazoned 'Leopardos Leonados' (Leopards Rampant Guardant), for adopting the posture that Lions have in armory», and he also takes the opportunity to introduce the term 'leopardado' (passant guardant), which is complementary to 'leonado' (rampant guardant), telling us «in the same way, Lions are blazoned 'Leones Leopardados' (Lions Passant Guardant), when they are passant, because it is the posture of the Leopards».
