binomen

The Linnaean classification system use of two Latin name categories, genus and species, to designate each type of organism. A genus is a higher level category that includes one or more species under it. For example, humans are Homo sapiens, or "man who is wise"--Homo is our genus and sapiens is our species. Binomen or binomial nomenclature literally means "two names" in Latin.
