Q
  • This is the usual name that you give a plant - Papaver (Poppy), Aquilegia (Columbine), and so on.
  • The plants in here are often easily recognizable as belonging to the same group.
  • The name should be written with a capital letter.
A

GENUS

17
Q
  • This is the level that defines an individual plant.
  • Often, the name will describe some aspect of the plant - the color of the flowers, size or shape of the leaves, or it may be named after the place where it was found.
  • Together, the Genus and Species name refer to only one plant, and they are used to identify that particular plant.
  • The name of the species should be written after the Genus name, in small letters, with no capital letter.
A

SPECIES

18
Q
  • a plant that is slightly different from the species plant, but the differences are not as insignificant as the differences in a form.
  • The Latin is varietas, which is usually abbreviated to _____
  • The name follows the Genus and species name, with var. before the individual variety name.
A
  • var

VARIETY

19
Q
  • a plant within a species with minor botanical differences, e.g. the color of flower or shape of the leaves.
  • The name follows the Genus and species name, with form (or f.) before the individual variety name.
A

FORM

20
Q
  • a cultivated variety, a particular plant that has arisen either naturally or through deliberate hybridization and can be reproduced (vegetatively or by seed) to produce more of the same plant.
  • The name follows the Genus and species name. It is written in the language of the person who described it and should NOT be translated.
  • It is either written in single quotation marks or has cv. written in front of the name.
A

  3. SUPERORDER - magnoliidae (magnolia superorder)
  4. ORDER - ranunculales (buttercup order)
  5. FAMILY - ranunculaceae (buttercup family)
  6. SUBFAMILY - ranunculoideae (buttercup subfamily)
  7. TRIBE - ranunculeae (buttercup tribe)
  8. GENUS - ranunculus (buttercup)

  10. SUBSPECIES - (Ranunculus flammula) subsp. flammula —— (lesser spearwort)
  11. VARIETY - (Ranunculus flammula subsp. flammula) var. tenuifolius —— (narrow-leaved lesser spearwort)

23
Q

A

visible physical characteristics of the plant

24
Q

  • Tagetes erecta

26
Q
  • Many systems for plant naming existed before the mid-1700s.
  • These earlier names were in _____, _____, ______ or/and sometimes in local vernacular names (Pavord, 2005).
  • These names sometimes were several words in length (Eg. Plantago foliis ovato-lanceolatus pubescentibus, spica cylindrica, scapo tereti - “Plantain with pubescent ovate-lanceolate leaves, a cylindric spike, and a terete scape,” which we know today as Plantago media).
  • This led to the same plant having different names in different places and made communication among plant scientists difficult.
A

Latin, Greek, Arabic

27
Q

The current system of binomial nomenclature involves identifying plants with two names, a genus and a species, dates from the publication of __________ in ____ by _______, a Swedish botanist. His work, published under his Latin name, ________ (1753), is acknowledged as the starting place for current naming procedures (Blunt, 1971).

Correct names today are governed by the ____________________ (McNeill et al., 2012; Bock, 1973).

  • There are over 300,000 species of flowering plants, making a general agreement with multiple common names inappropriate.
  • Hence, plant scientists depend on genus and species names for proper communication. This allows people everywhere to communicate about plant species with certainty.
A
  • Species Plantarum, 1753, Carl Linné
  • Carolus Linnaeus
  • International Code of Botanical Nomenclature
28
Q
  • The purpose of the Latin or botanical name of plants is to provide some information about a particular plant that distinguishes it from other plants.
  • The adjective applied to the plant, the ___________, is often helpful in describing the plant. It can tell us the color of the flowers, the height of the plant, whether the leaves are long and thin or short and fat, whether the plant is prickly, where it comes from, what sort of conditions it occurs in nature, how big it is, whether it’s a climber or whether it’s creeping, whether it’s deciduous, has a bulb, is edible - or whatever else the person who found it thought most remarkable, noteworthy and unique about it.
  • Like many other languages, Latin assigns genders to all its nouns, and adjectives have to agree with the gender of the noun they describe.
  • In plant names, therefore, those that are deemed masculine will end in ____, those that are feminine will end in ____, and those that are neutral will end in ___ (plus some odd ones with other endings).
A
  • specific epithet

: -us

: -a

: -um
