Orthologs are genes in different species that both descended from the same gene in a common ancestor.
The SWS gene in primates and the SWS1 gene in birds are orthologs. They both descend from the SWS1 gene that was present as far back in the phylogenetic tree as lampreys.
Both Paralogs and Orthologs are types of Homologs.
