Definition of species
Thanks for using this online dictionary, we have been helping millions of people improve their use of the english language with its free online services. English definition of species is as below...
Species
(n.) A group of
individuals
agreeing
in
common
attributes,
and
designated
by a
common
name; a
conception
subordinated
to
another
conception,
called
a
genus,
or
generic
conception,
from which it
differs
in
containing
or
comprehending
more
attributes,
and
extending
to fewer
individuals.
Thus, man is a
species,
under
animal
as a
genus;
and man, in its turn, may be
regarded
as a genus with
respect
to
European,
American,
or the like, as
species..
