interspecies

Across different species

Interspecies means between or involving different species.

The term appears in scientific contexts—interspecies communication, interspecies breeding—and in popular discussions of animal behavior: The video showed an interspecies friendship between a dog and an owl.

In science fiction, interspecies often describes relationships or conflicts between humans and aliens.
