'Weasel' can refer to the weasel family, the true weasel genus (including ermine), and also the species known as the Least Weasel.Martens are members of Mustelidae, the weasel family, but occupy their own genus, Martes.

The scientific name of a weasel is Mustela, which is the genus that includes various species of weasels. The most common weasel species is the Eurasian weasel, known scientifically as Mustela nivalis. Other species within the Mustela genus include the American weasel (Mustela frenata) and the stoat (Mustela erminea).
Taxonomically, they belong to the weasel family, and the 'true weasel' genus. However ermine (Mustela erminea) are a distinctly different species to the animal commonly referred to as a weasel (Mustela nirvalis).
Depends on what kind of weasel - in the genus Mustela of the Mustelidae family. In American usage, the term "weasel" can refer to any member of the genus, or to the genus as a whole. Of the 16 extant species currently classified in the genus Mustela, ten have "weasel" in their common name. Among those that do not are the stoat or ermine, the two species of mink, and the polecats or ferrets.
All of those are member of the 'weasel family', Mustelidae. However Sable are not that closely related to those others. While stoats, ferrets, and regular weasels are in the Mustela genus, a Sable is a kind of Marten, which occupies its own genus, Martes.
