In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature, also called binominal nomenclature or binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages.

It is a scientific name whereby each species receives Latin or Latinized name of two parts. The first indicating genus and the second being a specific name.
