Difference between Genus and Subgenus

Genus vs. Subgenus

A genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms, as well as viruses, in biology. In biology, a subgenus (plural: subgenera) is a taxonomic rank directly below genus.

Similarities between Genus and Subgenus

Genus and Subgenus have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Binomial nomenclature, Biology, International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, International Code of Zoological Nomenclature.

Binomial nomenclature

Binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system") also called nomenclature ("two-name naming system") or binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages.
