If it is desired to include the [[subgenus]] when giving the [[scientific name]] of an animal species or [[subspecies]], the subgenus's name is provided in parentheses between the [[generic epithet|genus name]] and the [[specific epithet]].<ref>{{cite web |publisher=International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature |title=Names of subgenera |url=https://code.iczn.org/chapter-2-the-number-of-words-in-the-scientific-names-of-animals/article-6-interpolated-names/?frame=1 |website=International Code of Zoological Nomenclature |access-date=6 June 2021 |year=2012 |edition=4th |archive-date=7 June 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210607005720/https://code.iczn.org/chapter-2-the-number-of-words-in-the-scientific-names-of-animals/article-6-interpolated-names/?frame=1 |url-status=live}}</ref> For instance, ''Polyphylla'' (''Xerasiobia'') ''alba'' is a way to cite the species ''Polyphylla alba'' while also mentioning that it is in the subgenus ''Xerasiobia''.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Welter-Schultes |first1=Francisco W. |title=Guidelines for the Capture and Management of Digital Zoological Names Information |date=March 2013 |publisher=Global Biodiversity Information Facility |location=Copenhagen |isbn=9788792020444 |url=http://www.gbif.org/document/80625 |chapter=1.4.5.4 Species |pages=14–15}}</ref> There is also a convention of citing a subgenus by enclosing it in parentheses after its genus, e.g., ''Polyphylla'' (''Xerasiobia'') is a way to refer to the subgenus ''Xerasiobia'' within the genus ''Polyphylla''.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Welter-Schultes |first1=Francisco W. |title=Guidelines for the Capture and Management of Digital Zoological Names Information |date=March 2013 |publisher=Global Biodiversity Information Facility |location=Copenhagen |isbn=9788792020444 |url=http://www.gbif.org/document/80625 |chapter=1.4.5.3 Genera |page=14}}</ref> Parentheses are similarly used to cite a subgenus with the name of a [[prokaryotic]] species, although the [[International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes]] (ICNP) requires the use of the abbreviation "subgen". as well, e.g., ''Acetobacter'' (subgen. ''Gluconoacetobacter'') ''liquefaciens''.<ref>{{cite journal |editor1-last=Parker |editor1-first=Charles T. |editor2-last=Tindall |editor2-first=Brian J. |editor3-last=Garrity |editor3-first=George M. |title=International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes: Prokaryotic Code (2008 Revision) |journal=International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology |date=2019 |volume=69 |issue=1A |page=S19 |doi=10.1099/ijsem.0.000778 |pmid=26596770 |doi-access=free}}</ref>
