Full Answer. Also called a dichotomous key, a taxonomic key gives users a systematic and reproducible way to identify items and organisms. It is used for a variety of purposes, such as identifying unknown organisms to a certain taxonomic level (e.g. family, genus and species) and identifying rocks or minerals.
Such a name is called a binomial name (which may be shortened to just binomial), a binomen or a scientific name; more informally it is also called a Latin name. The first part of the name identifies the genus to which the species belongs; the second part identifies the species within the genus.axonomy includes both nomenclature and classification. Its first stages (sometimes called  alpha taxonomy ) are concerned with finding, describing and naming species of living or fossil organisms. Binomial nomenclature is thus an important part of taxonomy as it is the system by which species are named.
