WHAT DOES SUBGENERIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Subgenus

In biology, a subgenus is a taxonomic rank directly below genus. In zoology, a subgeneric name can be used independently or included in a species name, in parentheses, placed between the generic name and the specific epithet: e.g. the tiger cowry of the Indo-Pacific, Cypraea tigris Linnaeus, which belongs to the subgenus Cypraea of the genus Cypraea. However, it is not mandatory, or even customary, when giving the name of a species, to include the subgeneric name.

Definition of subgeneric in the English dictionary

The definition of subgeneric in the dictionary is of or relating to a taxonomic group that is a subdivision of a genus but of higher rank than a species.
