Re: Scientific names
I guess you can think of it that way, but for actual banana researchers a species is a wild plant and those that arent are not species, this topic is about what the proper naming of bananas is, not what the proper naming should be. It is important to keep these two groups (edible and wild) seperate for many reasons. There have been some confused banana taxonomists who have tried to give edible bananas species names, such as Musa chiliocarpa, which is Musa 'Thousand Fingers', this is justs plain wrong. Edible bananas were essentially created by humans, for the use of humans, you can't go out into the forests and find wild edible bananas, they dont exist and need to remain a seperate group from the true wild species.
