Binomial nomenclature (also called binominal nomenclature or binary nomenclature) is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages. Such a name is called a binomial name (which may be shortened to just "binomial"), a binomen, binominal name or a scientific name; more informally it is also called a Latin name. The first part of the name identifies the genus to which the species belongs; the second part identifies the species within the genus. For example, humans belong to the genus Homo and within this genus to the species Homo sapiens.

Binomial Nomenclature is a system of namimg different species of organisms by denoting a specific scientific name. The name consists of two parts-the first part is the name of the genus and the second part is the name of the specific epithet.Carl Linnaeus ,the Father of Taxonomy, first developed this system around 18th century.
