Combination. Defined in the ICZN Code as "The association of a generic name and a specific name to form the name of a species; or of a generic name with a specific name and a subspecific name to form the name of a subspecies."

Is there a word which is a collective name for "binomial" + "trinomial".

All my dictionary & web searches for such a word have proved fruitless :-(
