More Information about: binominal nomenclature
Term binominal nomenclature
Explanation The generally accepted system of nomenclature, adopted by the International Congress of Zoology, by which the scientific name of an animal is designated by both a generic and a specific name: the system under which each species receives a name consisting of two words, of which the first is the generic name and the second is the specific name, e.g., Musca domestica.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
