concept that is broader than a species.

So a genus is a taxonomic rank that is broader than a species (a species belongs to a genus, and a genus can contain multiple species). The second option is incorrect as genus is broader, not narrower. The third option is incorrect as a genus contains multiple species, not a group within a species.
