In the hierarchy of biological classification, the subgroup that come after genus is specie.
The hierarchy in descending order is this: kingdom, phyllum, class, order, family, genus and species.

The right answer is specie.

The species is the fundamental entity of classifications, which brings together living beings presenting a set of common morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and genetic characteristics.

The species are grouped into genera and divided into subsets called varieties, breeds, strains or populations. The identification of species and their biodiversity is systematics, their nomenclature of taxonomy.
