Which famous book written by Linnaeus is the primary basis for plant nomenclature?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Species Plantarum

Linnaeus made major contributions to the naming and classification of organisms. For plants, his book Species Plantarum, published in 1753, is especially important because it presented plant names in a systematic form and is treated as the starting point for modern botanical nomenclature. It helped establish the use of two-part names for plant species and provided a common reference for later botanists.

Option B is therefore correct. Systema Naturae was a broad work on the classification of nature, and Genera Plantarum dealt with plant genera, but Species Plantarum has the special historical status connected with the beginning of formal plant nomenclature. Philosophia Botanica discussed botanical principles and terminology, yet it is not the standard answer to this question. The year 1753 is an important clue for plant naming.
