Diversity is the middle stage of distinction --- between the abstract "distinction as such" and the essential "opposition."
Origin: Hegel distinguishes fine nuances often blurred in traditional logic. Diversity is the "external" distinction, opposition the "inner" one.
In Hegel: Enz. §117; Science of Logic, Vol. 2, Essence
