Biologists follow universally accepted principles to provide scientific names to known organisms. Each name has two components – the Generic name and the specific epithet. This system of providing a name with two components is called Binomial nomenclature. This naming system is given by Carolus Linnaeus. Let us take the example of mango to understand the way of providing scientific names better. The scientific name of mango is written as

Mangifera indica. Let us see how it is a binomial name. In this name Mangifera

represents the genus while indica, is a particular species, or a specific epithet. Other universal rules of nomenclature are as follows:

  1. Biological names are generally in Latin and written in italics. They are Latinised or derived from Latin irrespective of their origin.
  2. The first word in a biological name represents the genus while the second component denotes the specific epithet.
  3. Both the words in a biological name, when handwritten, are separately underlined, or printed in italics to indicate their Latin origin.
  4. The first word denoting the genus starts with a capital letter while the specific epithet starts with a small letter. It can be illustrated with the example of Mangifera indica.
