Elephas maximus
elephas Maximus
asianis elephantis
Elephas maximum
Elephus maximus
Elephas maximus is the scientific, Latin or binomial name for the Asian elephant. It is one of three surviving elephant species. Of the three, it is the only genus to be found in Asia. The other two species, Loxodonta africana and L. cyclotis, are found in Africa.
No, Loxodonta is the scientific genus for African elephants. Asian elephants are of the genus elephas, and are closely related to the mammoth. The full scientific name for the Asian Elephant is Elephas maximus. Make sure when you write the full name for a creature the genus is capitalized and the species is lowercase and that it is written in italics if you are handwriting the name then you can underline it.
The scientific or taxonomic name would be Elephas maximus.
