I won't quiblle about it since, as with most terms used by evolutionists, their definitions are vague, unclear, and/or indeterminate.
I'm saying this from the perspective of one whose biology knowledge is very limited:
I think there could be considerable disagreement with that statement. The definitions a probably quite clear and precise. The problem is, is that often these "clear and precise" definitions are "black and white" approximations of what are really "grey area" considerations.
Witness the problems of defining the boundries between species. It is really a gradational thing, but still, sharp divisions are defined.
That said, I must bring up the very "vague, unclear, and/or indeterminate" definition problem of "kinds".
