? Thanks, but it is. English and Latin (scientific name).--Hockei (talk) you mean cursive. I always use the same style. The other people also don't use italics inevitably. 09:12, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

Scientific names of species, genera, etc are often designated as 'Latin names', which is not entirely correct. Following the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), scientific taxon names do not need to be latin words, they only need to be latinized words. In a text with normal type letters, scientific taxon names are written in Italic type style (strictly speaking, cursive has another meaning). Please, let me be clear: 'italic' versus 'normal' type letters is not a real problem here. However, why not follow the 'scientifically correct' way of doing?
