Species Nomenclature
The scientific name is always italicized. After it has been written in full once, it is usually abbreviated by using the initial of the genus, followed by the full spelling of the epithet, and the dropping of the describer’s name, hence D. carolina. The first letter of the genus name is always capitalized and the first letter of the specific epithet is always lower case.
