The definition of what a species is constantly changing, because there
isn't a simple way of assigning specifics in all cases.

We used to be "Homo Sapien". Now, we are "Homo Sapien Sapien".

Is a beagle the same species as a corgi? Why or why not? Is a lion the same
species as a tiger? Why or why not?

What is the key difference between the poppies papaver orientale, papaver
paucifoliatum, and papaver bracteatum?
