Answer:
Difference between scientific name and botanical name→
The botanical name of a plant is the scientific Latin name identifying the genus and the specific species. The reason this is done in horticulture is because while the Latin or scientific name of a plant never varies, the local common name sometimes does. Botanical name may also be known as scientific name.

Explanation :
Each scientific name of a species is two words (a binomen)—the first is the name of the genus to which the species is assigned, the second is the specific name.
The genus name is capitalized, the specific name is not, and both are printed in italics.
Scientific names must be used in technical literature.
