In philosophy, genus refers to the broader category or class to which something belongs, while differentia refers to the specific characteristics or qualities that distinguish something within that category. Together, genus and differentia are used in the process of classification and definition to identify and differentiate entities.
The genus of a leech is Haemopis.
The major genera of mollusks include octopus (genus Octopus), snails (genus Helix), and clams (genus Venerupis).
There are more kinds of organisms in a Genus because species is a subset of genus. Therefore, Genus is superior.
The genus of starflowers is Trientalis.
The genus for ambulatory is Ambulatonyx.
by giving its class(genus) and its differentia
GenusIn biology, a genus (plural: genera) is a low-level taxonomic rank (a taxon) used in the classification of living and fossil organisms, which is an example of definition by genus and differentia. The term comes from Latin genus "descent, family, type, gender", cognate with - genos, "race, stock, kin".
In the comparative study of religions, the genus of the definition of the word 'religion' will begin by a logical definition by stating some genus or larger class to which the term defined belongs which is broad enough to include everything that ought to be called religion. Under this genus, however, much that is not 'religion' is also included,-some phases, at least, of magic, science, art, morality and law. The definition must therefore be completed by a differentia, which will delimit the field of religion from the other forms that are not religious.
A formal definition is an equation-like-statement which has three parts: term, genus and differentia. In a logical definition, you state that something is a member of some genus or class then specify the differences that distinguish this thing from the other members of the class

In biology, a genus (plural: genera) is a low-level taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms, which is an example of definition by genus and differentia. Genera and higher taxonomic levels such as families are used in biodiversity studies, particularly in fossil studies since species cannot always be confidently identified and genera and families typically have longer stratigraphic ranges than species.[1]The term comes from Latin genus "descent, family, type, gender",[2] cognate with Greek: γένος -- genos, "race, stock, kin".[3] The hierarchy of biological classification's eight major taxonomic ranks. A family contains one or more genera. Intermediate minor rankings are not shown.The composition of a genus is determined by a taxonomist. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. In the hierarchy of the binomial classification system, genus comes above species and below family.Contents
