Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778), a Swedish botanist, invented the modern system of binomial nomenclature.
Linnaeus was a Swedish scientist that lived from 1707 to 1778. He devised a system still used today for classifying plants and animals on the basis of similarities in internal structures. He is often called the father of modern botany. Linnaeus is also known for popularizing binomial system of plant nomenclature.
Linnaeus,the Swedish naturalist 1707-1778, devised a binary,two part, naming system that has not been improved upon. It is based on Latin and avoids local names like 'forget me not' etc. which will be different in another country. The first name,equivalent to our surname, describes the Generic or group name eg Quercus (the Oak tree). The second,the specific name, or species is only given to one plant of the same genus eg Robor , the specific type . example 2 gives the variety in a third name. Campanula(lbell shaped)is generic rotundiflora (round flower) specific album ( white) varietal This naming system apples to all organisms and if a scientist discovers a new one he may use his surname in the description,eg Banksia named after Joseph Banks who sailed with Captain Cook to Botany Bay Australia .

Sweden does not use miles it uses kilometres. 1 mile = 1.61 kilometres.Although Sweden uses kilometers, the Swedish mil is in common everyday usage even though it may not be official. A Swedish mile is ten kilometers so that makes it about 6.2 US miles.

The Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus developed a system known as Linnaean classification for categorizing organisms and the binomial (Genus and species) nomenclature for naming them. Humans are Homo sapiens using this method. It means wise man.

Swedish botanist and physician Carl von Linné also known by his Latinized name Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778)
The binomial system of nomenclature was created by the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century. He developed this system to provide a standardized way of naming and classifying organisms based on their genus and species.
Binomial nomenclature is the system used in taxonomy to give each species a scientific name consisting of two parts, the genus name and the species name. This system was developed by Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist, in the 18th century.
The Swedish botanist who developed binomial nomenclature is Carolus Linnaeus, also known as Carl von Linné. He is considered the father of modern taxonomy for his contributions to organizing and naming organisms.
Charles Linn - (a Swedish botanist) - more commonly known by his Latin Pseudonym: Carolus Linnaeus, (since scientific writings in Europe were traditionally published in Latin at that time) proposed the 'Binomial System' for naming things when he sought to classify life's diversity.Since 1953 the 'Binomial System' was changed to the 'Binomial Nomenclature'.
The father of binomial nomenclature is Carl Linnaeus, an 18th-century Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist. He developed the system which assigns each species a two-part name consisting of a genus and a species epithet.
