With the given name/s or situation, identify the appropriate rule or principle that must be or was considered. Choices: Principle of binomial nomenclature, principle of priority, principle of coordination, principle of the first reviser, principle of homonymy, principle of typification When Rattus as a genus name was established, its species name, Rattus norvegicus was also automatically established. Noctua Linnæus, 1758 (Lepidoptera) and Noctua Gmelin (Sauropsida) Limax maculatus was established in 1837 by Nunneley. However, it was found that Wiktor has already established Limax maximus (Gastropoda) in 1758. Since L. maximus was the senior synonym, it takes precedence over L. maculatus and it was used for the species. The species name of giraffe is Giraffa camelopardalis.
