Biological Classification goes from broadest to most specific.

Here is the order:
Life
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class 
Order
Family
Genus
Species

When saying the scientific name of an organism we obviously do not say each of their 9 names, instead organisms are referred to as Genus Species. For example a Blue whale's Genus is balaenoptera and its Species is musculus. So we call it Balaenoptera musculus.
Manetho

Answer:

Name of genus

Explanation:

While naming any organism weather it is a plant or an animal, Scientist use a two name system called Binomial naming system. Of these two names first is the name of genus and second is the name of the species. First word is capitalized and not the second word.

For example name of Pea plant is Pisum sativum. here Pisum is the genus name and sativum is the name of the species.
