| Hyacinth bean | | Scientific classification or biological classification refers to how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. Modern classification has its roots in the system of Carolus Linnaeus, who grouped species according to shared physical characteristics. These groupings have been revised since Linnaeus to improve consistency with the Darwinian...
Scientific classification | | Kingdom: | Most familiar are the multicellular land plants, called embryophytes. They include the vascular plants, plants with full systems of leaves, stems, and roots. They also include a few of their close relatives, often called and . This fern-like tree combined a woody trunk with the fronds of a fern, but...
Plantae | | Division: | Classes Magnoliopsida - Dicots Liliopsida - Monocots The flowering plants (also angiosperms or Magnoliophyta) are one of the major groups of modern plants, comprising those that produce seeds in specialized reproductive organs called flowers, where the ovulary or carpel is enclosed. The other seed plants are called gymnosperms; here the ovule is...

Fabaceae | | Subfamily: | Genera See text. The Subfamily Faboideae is in the flowering plant family, Fabaceae. This subfamily is widely distributed and members are adapted to a wide varitely of environments. Faboideae may be trees, shrubs or herbs.

As the word binomial suggests, the scientific name of a species is formed by the combination of two terms: the genus name and the species epithet or descriptor. The first term (generic name) is always capitalized, while the...
