Bonjour!
* Universal rules of nomenclature are as follows :
(i) Biological names are generally in Latin and they are Latinised it from other language.
(ii) The first word in a biological name represents the genus while the second component denotes the specific epithet.
(iii) Both the words in a biological name, when handwritten are separately underlined, or printed in italics to indicate their Latin origin.
(iv) The first word denoting the genus starts with a capital letter while the specific epithet starts with a small letter.
Hope this helps...:)

Howdy!
The system of scientific naming or nomenclature that we use today is known as binomial nomenclature as it contains two words. The first word represents the genus and the second word represents the species of that particular organism.
Rules or norms for writing the scientific names are:
★The name of the genus begins with a capital letter.
★ The name of the species begins with a small letter.
★ When printed, the scientific name should always be given in italics.
★ The genus name and the species name have to be underlined separately when handwritten.
some examples are:
animal - frog -
plant - Neem -
glad to help uh!
