Q. What do you mean by Binomial nomenclature?
Binomial nomenclature is the naming of the individual entity and the group so produced through classification, according to the international rules. These rules are published in the form of international codes, like all other branch and knowledge. Under the heading of binomial nomenclature we will discuss its concepts and principles, binomial systems as put forth by Bauhin and Linnaeus and units of classification like species, genera and families..It is important to mention here that the international codes have no hand in deciding the scientific interpretation but whichever decision you follow the code should guide as to which name or names are to be applied to the entities under study.
