List of long species names
{{Short description|List of species with names longer than 34 letters}}
Living organisms are known by scientific names. These binomial names can vary greatly in length, and some of them can become very long depending on the meanings they try to convey. This list of longest species names lists the longest scientific binomials.{{Cite web|url=http://botanistoflife.blogspot.com/2020/10/what-is-longest-scientific-name.html|title=Life of a Botanist ... is not only a bed of roses|date=31 October 2020 |access-date=2020-10-31|archive-date=2020-11-06|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201106110722/http://botanistoflife.blogspot.com/2020/10/what-is-longest-scientific-name.html|url-status=live}}
Species in this list are grouped by length of their name. Only binomials are considered, not subgenera, trinomial names of subspecies or infraspecific names. Family is given for each species (or the closest taxonomic rank if family is unassigned), with a short explanation. The shortest scientific species names can be found in the List of short species names.

|Weberbauerocereus cephalomacrostibas (Werderm. & Backeb.) F.Ritter - family Cactaceae. This Peruvian cactus was originally described as Cereus cephalomacrostibas (24 letters); the specific epithet is derived from the Greek words kephale for 'head', makros for 'big' and stibas for 'bed', and refers to the large areoles that almost flow together near the tips of the shoots. It was later transferred to genus Weberbauerocereus, named for German botanist August Weberbauer.{{cite web|url=https://www.ipni.org/n/1036377-2|title=Weberbauerocereus cephalomacrostibas | International Plant Names Index|website=www.ipni.org|access-date=2021-05-31|archive-date=2021-06-02|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210602215746/https://www.ipni.org/n/1036377-2|url-status=live}} The second of two species that share the title of the second longest accepted plant name.
