There are several different varieties of basil. The one usually used in Italian cuisine is sweet basil. Holy basil and lemon basil are different (but closely related) species, and Thai basil is the same species as sweet basil but a different variety (sort of like how poodles and dachshunds are both the same species, but you wouldn't likely mistake one for the other).
