Homo Floresiensis?

Question

Where can I find good sources, I already printed out the whole Wiki article and read that, and I also have the National Geographic artical printed out. I want more sources! Also, should Florensiensis be capitalized?

Answer 1

Homo floriensis is correct, the genus name is Homo, that one is always capitalized, and the species name is floriensis, and this is never capitalized.  Our species is Homo sapiens, the sugar maple tree is Acer sucra, the leopard gecko is Eublepharis macularius, etc.

Some good sources for Homo floriensis follow:

Answer 2

Check out the website for the American Journal of Primatology. I like the articles there. Just type in floresiensis into the search box for full articles. floresiensis should be lower case, Homo is uppercase and both need to be italicized (or underlined)

<i>Homo floresiensis</i>

Answer 3

And it is Homo floresiensis with both words underlined seperately
