Question

write the universal rules of nomenclature with examples.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

The universal rules of nomenclature are as follows:

Biological names are in Latin and are written in italics.

The first word in the name indicates the genus, while the second word denotes its specific epithet.

When the name is handwritten, both the words are separately underlined. When printed, the name is in italics.

The first letter of the first word is always written in capital, while the first letter of the specific epithet, i.e. the second word, is a small letter.

Examples: Homo sapiens, Mangifera indica

ᵐᵃʳᵏ ᵐᵉ ᵃˢ ᵇʳᵃⁱⁿˡⁱᵉˢᵗ ❤❤
