What is the meaning of the double name of animals? Give examples of such names.

Binomial nomenclature is a way of designating the name of animal species in two Latin words, where the first word is the name of the genus, and the second is the specific name. This makes it possible to build a systematic relationship between species, showing that two species belong to the same genus, but distinguishing them by their specific name. The nomenclature was introduced by Karl Linnaeus. Examples include Lepus europaeus – the European hare, Vulpes cana – the Afghan fox.
