What are the conventions followed for writing the scientific names?

1 Answer

The conventions followed while writing the scientific names are:

1. The name of the genus begins with a capital letter.

2. The name of the species begins with a small letter.

3. When printed, the scientific name is given in italics.

4. When written by hand, the genus name and the species name have to be underlined separately.
