Each kind of plant is a species, and has a Latin name. This name is made of two parts — a genus name, and a species, or specific, name. A plant has a genus name, just as a person has a family name, and a species name, just as a person has a given name. Thus each plant in the Phaseolus genus is called Phaseolus. Then, to distinguish a plant from others in the same genus, a species name is added. Among the plants of the Phaseolus genus, for instance, are the mungo, the patani, and the white American bean. They are called Phaseolus Mungo, Phascohis luuatus,. Fig. 3. Phaseolus vulgaris, or white American bean.
