List of Genus Names?
Does anyone know where to find a list of genus names and species? This is probably stupid of me, but do all genera have various species? I know when standing alone the genus name should be lower case, but when I come across a bacterial-sounding name, I am not sure what to do with it sometimes and cannot always tell from my web search.
For example: staphylococcus when alone is not capped, but I really feel lost in this area.  Can anyone help?
Thx!
