> Similarly is there a term for mutually interbreedable but distinct `species'? It's species or subspecies. Animal classification has always been a little bit fuzzy and has some legacy cruft laying around. Like wolves, coyotes, and dogs are distinct animals with different behaviors but are definitely capable of interbreeding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subspecies For domestic animals, we have the noun breed, as in breed of dog. |
