Answer:

For example, binomial name for Mango is Mangifera Indica where 'Mangifera' denotes generic name ( genus ) and 'indica' represents specific epithet ( species ).

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial name consists of a genus name and specific epithet. The scientific names of species are italicized. The genus name is always capitalized and is written first; the specific epithet follows the genus name and is not capitalized. There is no exception to this.
