For this one gene with four alleles, the species would have 10 possible genotypes.

This occurrence is called multiple alleles. The important thing is that there may be multiple alleles within the population, but individuals have only two of those alleles (one from mother one from father).

Calculation of possible genotypes:

Genotypes = n * n+1 / 2
