I think this is better than "in negative" for a noun.

  Comments:
We have the same sort of xref, but without the note, on the synonym 類い.

Note copied from 為す術, in case this isn't the right wording. (not a negative verb or a negative sentence, *usually* just なき なく ない pretty much...)  First page of yourei was all negation, with this one extremely elegant non-ない usage:
彼女に比類する美女の数は片手の指を超えまい
