Binomial Nomenclature is indeed a popular, formal method of naming organisms. The nomenclature is made up of two names that are both taken from Latin. This can, however, be derived from those other languages as well. A name of this type is known as a binomial identity or even a scientific name.
The species to which a organism belongs is highlighted by the generic version or the first portion of the name. The second portion, or specific name, indicates the precise species inside the genus that the creature fits.
Furthermore, with binomial nomenclature, certain standards must be fulfilled, like the generic name all being capitalised while the particular name is not. In addition, the full name must be italicised.
