See also canid vs canine, felid vs feline. The pattern also has caniform, feliform as a partition of extant carnivora; but no *homiform; alas, Wikipedia only gives simiiform, the higher primates. Canine = dog,wolf,jackal,fox. Canid = [only canines are extant]. Feline = housecat, wildcat (very broadly), lynx, cheetah, puma. Felid = felines, remaining big cats. Selected caniforms: canids, bears, earless seals. Selected feliforms: felids, hyenas(!), mongooses.
