naming or nomenclature we use today was introduced by Carolus Linnaeus in the eighteenth century. In Binomial nomenclature, the first name is the generic name beginning with a capital letter whereas the second name is the species name which begins with a small letter. Example – <i>Homo</i> <i>sapiens</i> where <i>Homo</i> is a genus name and <i>sapiens</i> is a species name.
Certain conventions are followed while writing the scientific names:
1. The name of the genus begins with a capital letter.
2. The name of the species begins with a small letter.
3. When printed, the scientific name is given in italics.
4. When written by hand, the genus name and the species name have to be underlined separately.
