A line of constant longitude is often called a "meridian".
A line of constant latitude is often called a "parallel".
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
A Parallel - because they are imaginary lines that run around the earth parallel to the equator
another name for a line of longitude is meridian.
The Prime Meridian is the line whose longitude is defined as zero. The equator is the line whose latitude is defined as zero.
That line has often been called the "Equator" in song and story, and on maps as well, too.

The other name for Longitude is Meridians. same way as the prime meridian The other name for Latitude is Parallels. same way as the equador
For Maps, it is latitude and longitude.
Another name for a line of longitude is "meridian."
The imaginary semi-circular "lines" of constant longitude are "meridians". The imaginary full-circular "lines" of constant latitude are "parallels".
No "named" line of longitude crosses Australia. The Tropic of Capricorn (latitude) crosses Australia.
