Canis lupus comes from the genus Canis (the dog and wolf genus) and the family Canidae (the dog, wolf, jackal, fox, raccoon dog and maned wolf family). Thus, to find a species of the same genus as the Canis lupus, we look in the genus Canis. Of course, we search in the family Canidae to find a matching family (if we have a matching genus then we will automatically have a matching family and, if not, there is some bizarre and amusing mistake).
