More Information about: jizz
Term jizz
Explanation Jizz is the 'je ne sais quoi' of a fly's being, the not easily defined mix of characters which identify a taxon.
This is the concept of gestalt and the family species is a gestalt entity. A gestalt entity is a physical, biological, psychological, or symbolic configuration or pattern of elements, so unified as a whole that its properties cannot be derived from a simple summation of its parts.
