- AlotOfReading 3y agoDepends on which naming convention you subscribe to. Most people just use H. neanderthalensis for convenience rather than writing out H. s. n. since everyone knows what they mean either way. Neither classification is obviously correct either, hence the introduction of more nuanced categories like "allotaxa" that aren't reflected in binomial nomenclature (yet?).
