    Grahm means with respect to a species. Nominal (sometimes written as Nominate) is the correct term you're looking for, but it has been butchered by various hobbyists. In correct use it distinguishes the originally described "subspecies" of a species. In the hobby it is used to refer to a "race" (usually a distinctly colored form from one geographical location). This isn't the correct usage and now hobbyists throw the term around to mean different things, depending on which species you're dealing with. It's best to stay away from that term unless you're a scientist.
