Pacman: Target can be found for reinstall, but not for removal

I'm using the Manjaro i3 setup, which comes with the palemoon browser. I however really don't have any need for this, so I'd like to uninstall.

When I run pacman -Rns palemoon, I get error: target not found: palemoon. Odd, but seeing as how it was bundled with the distro I installed from it's not completely outside the realm of possibility that the binary was just added to the system rather than being installed from a package manager.

Oddly enough though, if I run pacman -S palemoon I'm given the standard reinstall prompt. How can this be? Target found on reinstall, but not on removal?

I noticed 'palemoon-bin' while running an update. Apparently that was the key. Didn't expect that.
