Fictional species and kinds includes:
- species: current biological & taxonomic definitions of species (inter-fertile entities);
- "kinds" as in fantasy (e.g., elves, werewolves, vampires, zombies, etc.; sometimes called "races", although distinct from the actual modern socio-cultural-historic "races") and science fiction ("post-human", AI, cyborg, robots, genetically engineered variants of humans, etc.)
Fictional species and kinds may represent different aspects of human behavior, present-day groupings (race, nationality, gender, etc.), and may explore "humanity", difference, commonality, ideas about evolution, or may simply reify prejudices and imagined differences between present-day groupings.
