Why is seahorse not a good scientific name?

Answer 1

Because their are many diffrent type of sea horses and you must classify diffrent type of the species

Answer 2

A major reason is that "sea horse" actually covers multiple different species of animals living in many different habitats. A scientific name needs to be specific to one interbreeding population of animals so that information about that species can be discussed without confusion.

Put another way, using "sea horse" as a scientific name is about as useful as talking about "rocks" in geology - there are so many different things you could be talking about that a scientific conversation is not possible without further defining what exactly you are looking at.

Answer 3

Seahorse is not a good scientific name because it is a common name used by the general public, not a unique and specific term used in scientific classification. In scientific naming, organisms are given a two-part Latin name, known as a binomial nomenclature, to accurately identify and classify them.
