What is a species?

A species is a set of living beings able to cross between themselves generating fertile offspring.

This concept though does not apply to individuals of exclusive asexual reproduction and so other definitions have been proposed. For instance, "a species is a set of living beings that include in a common manner all of them considered ancestors of the similar type in relation to common descendants".
