There is a system of naming species in biology called binomial nomenclature . It is based on the use of two Latinized names for the identification and classification of each species and was created by the Swedish botanist **Carl Linnaeus **in the 18th century.
In this system each species is given a separate two-part scientific name, consisting of a **genus name **(the first part) and a **species epithet **(the second part). The **species epithet **is written in lower case, but the genus name begins with a capital letter. When written by hand, names are either underlined or printed in italics . Additionally, whenever a scientific name is used in prose, the full name is often italicized .

Binomial nomenclature is a system for naming organisms using a two-part format consisting of a genus name and a species epithet, established by Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century. This naming convention helps avoid confusion caused by regional common names and ensures each species has a unique identifier. The genus name is capitalized while the species epithet is not, and both are typically italicized.
