- Genus–differentia_definition abstract "A genus–differentia definition is a type of intensional definition which defines a species (that is, a type — not necessarily a biological category) as a subtype of a genus satisfying certain conditions (the differentia). Thus, the definiendum in such definitions is always a species (and not an individual), while the definiens consists of two parts: a genus (or family): A pre-defined term that includes the species defined as a subtype. the differentia: The condition that distinguishes the species from other instances of the same genus.For example, consider these two definitions: a triangle: A plane figure that has 3 straight bounding sides. a quadrilateral: A plane figure that has 4 straight bounding sides.Those definitions can be expressed as one genus and two differentiae: one genus: A plane figure. two differentiae: the differentia for a triangle: that has 3 straight bounding sides. the differentia for a quadrilateral: that has 4 straight bounding sides.Note that the genus-species relation is relative. One may define "dog" as a species of the genus "animal", while "puppy" is a species of the genus "dog". Thus, whether "dog" is a species or a genus depends on context.".
