Genus–differentia definition

2507: 36: 2518: 492:. In such a case, it is notationally convenient to consolidate the definitions into one definition that is expressed with multiple genera (and possibly no differentia, as in the following): 1227: 554: 574: 153:(or family): An existing definition that serves as a portion of the new definition; all definitions with the same genus are considered members of that genus. 140: 2040: 1220: 53: 100: 72: 1793: 2568: 1213: 992:
As in that example, the identity itself (or some part of it) is often used to refer to the entire individual, a phenomenon that is known in

When a system of definitions is constructed with genera and differentiae, the definitions can be thought of as nodes forming a

When multiple definitions could serve equally well, then all such definitions apply simultaneously. Thus,
