Difference between Collective noun and Common name

Collective noun vs. Common name

In linguistics, a collective noun refers to a collection of things taken as a whole. In biology, a common name of a taxon or organism (also known as a vernacular name, English name, colloquial name, trivial name, trivial epithet, country name, popular name, or farmer's name) is a name that is based on the normal language of everyday life; this kind of name is often contrasted with the scientific name for the same organism, which is Latinized.
