In partic.

In philos. lang., like species, a sort, kind: nolim, ne si Latine quidem dici possit, specierum et speciebus dicere; et saepe his casibus utendum est: at formis et formarum velim... Genus et formam definiunt hoc modo: genus est notio ad plures differentias pertinens;

forma est notio, cujus differentia ad caput generis et quasi fontem referri potest. Formae igitur sunt hae, in quas genus sine ullius praetermissione dividitur, ut si quis jus in legem, morem, aequitatem dividat, etc.,

Cic. Top. 7, 31; cf.:

genus et species, quam eandem formam Cicero vocat,

Quint. 5, 10, 62: a forma generis, quam interdum, quo planius accipiatur, partem licet nominare, hoc modo, etc.... Genus enim est uxor;

ejus duae formae: una matrumfamilias, altera earum, quae tantummodo uxores habentur,

Cic. Top. 4, 14:

quod haec (partitio) sit totius in partes, illa (divisio) generis in formas,

Quint. 5, 10, 63:

duae formae matrimoniorum,

id. 5, 10, 62.—
