Genera?

Pretty sure that's Italian for genre. Or a weird typo/autocorrect error/both 😁

nope. it's the plural.

The plural of genre is genres. The singular of genera is genus... Which might make sense here, but not as a plural.

Nope. Its genera in this context because they are discussing it as species.

They are pluralizing genus. Its a reference to it being a new "species" of image.

Your assumption of the word they are pluralizing was wrong.

Still wrong because they are refering to an individual "species" of image, so it would be genus not genera.

`Plural of genre. Still should have been singular "genre" though, unless there are multiple genera of these images.

I was thinking of "genus".

I think the word genre comes directly from the french word ("genre", meaning "type"), which in the plural form is "genres". I don't think "genera" means anything, it's probably a typo

"Genera" is a plural form of "genus" (i.e. also "type," but in the fancy scientific sense used in taxonomy).

They apparently couldn't be bothered to to type out
