Probably the easiest way to learn is to ignore half of the binomial (scientific name) and concentrate EITHER on the specific epithet OR on the genus.

For example, with Fransuasaecyathus novus at the bottom, use the "novus" part of the name, note that the thing looks kind of star like, relate that to a nova...

And so, convoluta is convoluted (twisted), debilis looks debilitated, etc.
