Binomial nomenclature

A painting of Carolus Linnaeus in the clothing of Lapland, done by Hendrick Hollander in 1853

In biology, binomial nomenclature is how species are named. The name of a species is made of two parts: one indicating the genus and one indicating the species. Binomial nomenclature means "two-part name" or "system of two-part names".
