They are all technical terms the word hybrid is simply any crossbreeding between two organisms with differing taxonomical classifications. There is no differentiation between if it is man breed or naturally occurring.
""hey adam by your own definition interspecific & intergeneric are the same thing a hybrid.""
While these might be paraphrased by myself they aren't my own definitions. I got them out of science journals and encyclopedias and confirmed them through reading reports on wild hybrids other then just herps, like mussels, birds, bacteria, fish, among others.
The word interspecific or intergeneric are just used to further explain the type of hybrid. So they are and are not the same thing as a iterspecific talks about a hybrid at the species rank and intergeneric talks about a hybrid at the genera rank.
"""and i dont know maybe its me but intra-specific seems to technical a term for intergrade but i digress.
as you know i have a hard time with people throwing the term hybrid around when the fact remains true hybrids are rarely discovered or occur in nature whilst intergrades often do occur where ssp.share range."""
The break down of the word intra-specific hybrid purely means that it is a hybrid that is from with in the same species complex. The word intergrade is simply a word that speaks about the merging of any two forms into a intermediate form or a staged range of intermediate forms.
"""FTR imho hybrids are when a genus is crossed,intergrades are when a ssp. of the same genus cross,BIG DIFFERANCE ,,,,,,,,thomas"""
If you think I'm wrong look them its that simple. ----- Adam
