Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger and Black Tortoise were initially known as Qing Long, Zhu Que, Bai Hu and Xuan Wu. In Japanese they're known as Seiryu, Suzaku, Byakko and Genbu. Huang Long/Yellow Dragon in Japanese means Koryu.

And why is Huang Long usually excluded from the Beasts list? I mean, they usually say "Four Beasts" instead of Five Beasts or something like that...

And did you know that the White Tiger's place was initially occupied by the Qilin? When did it change from the Qilin to the White Tiger?
