Question

How do you write a binomial name?

Answer 1

Ways to write binomial names:

1. The genus name and particular epithet make up the binomial name.
2. Italicization is used for species and generic names.
3. The specific epithet comes after the genus name and is not capitalized; the genus name is always capitalized and written first.
4. This is true without exception.
5. For example, the binomial name of mango is Mangifera indica.
