It does this because you entered the binomial botanical name in your proposal, so the system naturally assumed that the first was the genus and the second was the species. Am I misunderstanding your question? I see nothing wrong with separating the genus from the species.

Your proposal also contained another error. The common name is Sundew, not Drosera magnifica.
