Because all other scientists will know which organism you are talking about. Long ago the common wild briar rose was referred to by different botanists as Rosa sylvestris inodora seu canina and as Rosa sylvestris alba cum rubore, folio glabro. It was then given a genus and species name (Rosa rubiginosa) so that all would know what was meant.
