The post is wrong.

Cannabis is the family, while Indica, Sativa and Ruderalis are the species.

The part directly above the species is the genus. Family comes after that, and is Cannabaceae in this case.

Yeah but the original cannabis indica described has none of the physical characteristics of what it does today, there is not a genetic difference between sativa and indica that is sold in the cannabis market today.
