Antibacterials can also affect the vaginal flora, and may lead to overgrowth of yeast species of the genus Candida in the vulvo-vaginal area.

For example, the species, man, may be defined as an animal ( genus ) that is rational ( difference ).

As the difference is potential within the genus ; that is, an animal may or may not be rational, the difference is not identical to, and may be distinct from, the genus.

Most of the kinds commonly eaten fresh or dried, those of the genus Phaseolus, come originally from the Americas, being first seen by a European when Christopher Columbus, during his exploration, of what may have been the Bahamas, found them growing in fields.

Juvenile cane toads may be confused with species of the Uperoleia genus, but their adult colleagues can be distinguished by the lack of bright colouring on the groin and thighs.

Chipmunks may be classified either as a single genus, Tamias, or as three genera: Tamias, which includes the eastern chipmunk ; Eutamias, which includes the Siberian chipmunk ; and Neotamias, which includes the 23 remaining, mostly western, species.

In the genus Pereskia the branches are covered with leaves, so that species of this genus may not be recognized as cacti.

The scholastic philosophers claimed that the highest genera ( the so-called ten generalissima ) cannot be defined, since we cannot assign any higher genus under which they may fall.

Based on the analysis of the DNA polymerase the genus Dinodnavirus may be a member of the family Asfarviridae.

However, if these species do indeed constitute their own genus, then they may be given their own name, the Paranthropus.

One may define " dog " as a species of the genus " animal ", while " puppy " is a species of the genus " dog ".

Then, the definition of a square may be recast with that abstraction as its genus:

Then, the definition of a square may be recast with that abstraction as its genus:

In fact, the definition of a square may be recast in terms of both of the abstractions, where one acts as the genus and the other acts as the differentia:

It may also be distinguished from other kumquats by its round leaves that make this species unique within the genus.

Such taxa may be either monophyletic ( including all descendants ) such as genus Homo, or paraphyletic ( excluding some descendants ), such as genus Australopithecus.

The ring may be skirt-like as in some species of Amanita, collar-like as in many species of Lepiota, or merely the faint remnants of a cortina ( a partial veil composed of filaments resembling a spiderweb ), which is typical of the genus Cortinarius.

The APG III system ( 2009 ) differs only in that the Limnocharitaceae are combined with the Alismataceae ; it was also suggested that the genus Maundia ( of the Juncaginaceae ) could be separated into a monogeneric family, Maundiaceae, but the authors noted that more study was necessary before Maundiaceae could be recognized.

If the latter, Amaryllis would be the correct name for the genus Hippeastrum, and a different name would have to be used for the genus discussed here.

Although the 1987 decision settled the question of the scientific name of the genus, the common name " amaryllis " continues to be used differently.

Hybrids said to be between Amaryllis belladonna and Brunsvigia josephinae have been called × Amarygia, Neither hybrid genus name is accepted by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families.

In Aristotle, substances are to be clarified by stating their definition: a note expressing a larger class ( the genus ) followed by further notes expressing specific differences ( differentiae ) within the class.

The genus cannot be nothing because nothing is not a class of everything.

Nearly all the descriptive words used to justify the genus division were relative terms without a reference measure, and the argument did not take into account the size differences between the species, which can be considerable.

He discovered that the intestines of Triatomidae ( now Reduviidae: Triatominae ) harbored a flagellate protozoan, a new species of the Trypanosoma genus, and was able to prove experimentally that it could be transmitted to marmoset monkeys that were bitten by the infected bug.

Those definitions can be expressed as a genus and 2 differentiae:

It seems likely that they will be placed into a new genus or family in the next revision of the taxonomy of this group.

The blue whale is usually classified as one of eight species in the genus Balaenoptera ; one authority places it in a separate monotypic genus, Sibbaldus, but this is not accepted elsewhere.

In creation science, creationists accepted speciation as occurring within a " created kind " or " baramin ", but objected to what they called " third level-macroevolution " of a new genus or higher rank in taxonomy.

In creation science, creationists accepted speciation as occurring within a " created kind " or " baramin ", but objected to what they called " third level-macroevolution " of a new genus or higher rank in taxonomy.

However, evidence of hybrids between polar bears and brown bears, and of the recent evolutionary divergence of the two species, does not support the establishment of this separate genus, and the accepted scientific name is now therefore Ursus maritimus, as Phipps originally proposed.

Thus fewer than half of the currently accepted Banksia taxa possess the elongated flower spike long considered characteristic of the genus.

In 1880, Philip Weilbach, secretary and librarian at the Art Academy in Copenhagen, and like Luke Howard, an amateur meteorologist, proposed and had accepted by the International Meteorological Committee ( IMC ) the designation of a new free-convective vertical genus type, cumulonimbus, which would be distinct from cumulus and nimbus and identifiable by its appearance and ability to produce thunder.

At about the same time, several cloud specialists proposed variations that came to be accepted as species subdivisions and varieties determined by more specific variable aspects of the structure of each genus.

Apalharpactes, consisting of two species in the Java and Sumatra, has only recently been accepted as a separate genus from Harpactes.

It is the only accepted species in the genus Cocos.

in 1789, but this name is no longer accepted under the nomenclature codes because it is not based on a genus name.

This assertion was widely accepted, until Boisserie asserted in 2005 that the pygmy hippopotamus was not a member of Hexaprotodon, after a thorough examination of the phylogeny of Hippopotamidae ; he suggested instead that the pygmy hippopotamus was a distinct genus, and returned the animal to Choeropsis.

Consequently these taxa, namely the never generally accepted genus Chamaesyce as well as the smaller genera Cubanthus, Elaeophorbia, Endadenium, Monadenium, Synadenium

Starting from the four genera accepted by Øllgaard, a study based on chloroplast DNA produced the cladogram shown below ( reproduced here to genus level only ), confirming the monophyly of the four genera, and their distance from Isoetes.

Myiopsitta monachus is presently the only unequivocally accepted member of the genus Myiopsitta.

In this clearing up of the taxonomy, Ernest Entwistle Cheesman in 1947 revived the genus name Ensete which had been published in 1862, by Horaninow, but had not been accepted.

Thus Nemexia is not currently considered an accepted genus taxon by most plant taxonomists.

The Lynx genus is now accepted, and the bobcat is listed as Lynx rufus in modern taxonomic sources.

There are now more than 2, 800 records ( accepted names and synonyms ) for this genus.

The placement of genus Rhabdornis in a family of its own ( Rhabdornithidae Greenway, 1967 ) is not accepted by all authorities, and it is sometimes placed in Certhiidae or Timaliidae.

* American rosefinches ( probably a distinct genus Haemorhous, as now accepted by the American Ornithologists Union, or Burrica )

For almost 90 years, the classification of Neofelis as a monotypic genus was widely accepted.

There had been debates over whether to classify this species as Lynx canadensis or Felis canadensis, part of a wider issue regarding whether the four species of Lynx should be given their own genus, or be placed as a subgenus of Felis, but the Lynx genus is now accepted.
