Horse outward similarity is an unreliable measure of relatedness. Besides the horse, there are six other species of genus "Equus" in the Equidae family. These are the ass or donkey, "Equus asinus"; the mountain zebra, "Equus zebra"; plains zebra, "Equus quagga"; Grévy's zebra, "Equus grevyi"; the kiang, "Equus kiang"; and the onager, "Equus hemionus". Horses can crossbreed with other members of their genus. The most common hybrid is the mule, a cross between a "jack" (male donkey) and a mare. A related hybrid, a hinny, is a cross between a stallion and a jenny (female donkey). Other hybrids include the zorse,
Equus lambei of the modern wild horse, including the domestic horse, "Equus caballus". Controversy still surrounds "E. lambei" and the divergence of other similar extinct horse species. Through examinations of the bones and teeth of "Equus lambei", many similarities can be seen with the modern horse "Equus caballus". There is also a strong resemblance to "E. lambei" in the metapodials of "E. caballus przewalskii" and the phalanges of "E. caballus lenensis" "." Metrical and morphological studies of horse teeth from the Bluefish Caves confirm the close similarity between "Equus lambei" with wild and domestic horses alive today. "E. lambei" is a "caballus"
