What's the difference between species and valonia?
Species
Definition:
(n.) Visible or sensible presentation; appearance; a sensible percept received by the imagination; an image.
(n.) A group of individuals agreeing in common attributes, and designated by a common name; a conception subordinated to another conception, called a genus, or generic conception, from which it differs in containing or comprehending more attributes, and extending to fewer individuals. 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.
(n.) A sort; a kind; a variety; as, a species of low cunning; a species of generosity; a species of cloth.
(n.) Coin, or coined silver, gold, ot other metal, used as a circulating medium; specie.
(n.) A public spectacle or exhibition.
(n.) A component part of compound medicine; a simple.
(n.) An officinal mixture or compound powder of any kind; esp., one used for making an aromatic tea or tisane; a tea mixture.
(n.) The form or shape given to materials; fashion or shape; form; figure.

(20) Temelastine produces these species-specific changes by enhancing thyroxine clearance from the circulation in the rat, but not in the dog or mouse.
Valonia
Definition:
(n.) The acorn cup of two kinds of oak (Quercus macrolepis, and Q. vallonea) found in Eastern Europe. It contains abundance of tannin, and is much used by tanners and dyers.
(n.) A genus of marine green algae, in which the whole frond consists of a single oval or cylindrical cell, often an inch in length.
Example Sentences:
