What's the difference between species and type?

Species


Definition:

  • (n.) Visible or sensible presentation; appearance; a sensible percept received by the imagination; an image.

Thus, man is a species, under animal as a genus; and man, in its turn, may be regarded as a genus with respect to European, American, or the like, as species.
  • (n.) In science, a more or less permanent group of existing things or beings, associated according to attributes, or properties determined by scientific observation.
