The two parts in scientific names are the genus and the specific epithet or species name.The genus and species are the last two classification in the Linnaeus hierarchy.
There are certain rules on writing and typing the scientific names.Some of them_:
-The genus name can be written alone to designate all species on that genus.
i.e:Zea-describes all tall annual grass with separate female and male flowers
-The species name however cannot be written alone and must follow the full genus name.
i.e:Zea mays or Z. mays (corn)
-In printing,the scientific names must be in Italics.
i.e:Homo sapiens
-In writing,the scientific names must be underlined separately.

genus and class
genus and species
A scientific name has two parts - the genus and the species. The genus name is capitalized and both parts are italicized or underlined when written. For example, Homo sapiens is the scientific name for humans, with Homo being the genus and sapiens being the species.
A binomen is a name with two parts, or a scientific name at the rank of species with two terms, a generic name and a specific name.
An organism's scientific name consists of two parts: the genus name and the species name. Together, these two components form the organism's unique scientific name, known as its binomial nomenclature.
The scientific name for Lianas is the Linnaeus formal system of naming species. Every name has two parts, which is known as the binomial nomenclature.
No, the scientific name of an organism is composed of two parts - the genus name and the species name. These names are standardized and cannot be shortened or abbreviated in an official capacity.
A binomen is a two-part Latin name used in the scientific classification of organisms. It consists of the genus name followed by the species name, forming the species' scientific name. For example, in Homo sapiens, "Homo" is the genus and "sapiens" is the species.
The scientific name is written in Latin or Greek. The name is composed of two parts: the genus name followed by the species name. The genus name is always capitalized, while the species name is written in lowercase. The entire scientific name is italicized or underlined.
Italicized in scientific writing to indicate that it is a Latinized binomial name composed of two parts: the genus name and the species name.
An example of a scientific name: African wild dog- Lycaon pictusThe first part of a scientific name is called the genus.In the Lycaon example above, Lycaon is the genus.
All scientific name must have at least two words that are commonly in Latin.
