Answer 2

The Latin names for individual species are written using a system termed "binomial nomenclature" that was developed originally by Linnaeus. Quite literally, each species is identified by a combination of "two names": its genus name and its specific epithet. A familiar example is that of human beings, Homo sapiens. Usually the Latin name is followed by the last name of the person who first gave the name to the species in non-italicized text.
