Quoting%20commentary for Yevamot 6:2

וְכֵן הַבָּא עַל אַחַת מִכָּל הָעֲרָיוֹת שֶׁבַּתּוֹרָה, אוֹ פְסוּלוֹת, כְּגוֹן אַלְמָנָה לְכֹהֵן גָּדוֹל, גְּרוּשָׁה וַחֲלוּצָה לְכֹהֵן הֶדְיוֹט, מַמְזֶרֶת וּנְתִינָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, בַּת יִשְׂרָאֵל לְמַמְזֵר וּלְנָתִין, פָּסַל. וְלֹא חָלַק בֵּין בִּיאָה לְבִיאָה:

Likewise, if one cohabits [by any of the aforementioned varieties of intercourse] with any of the arayoth of the Torah or with any of the unfit ones, such as a widow to a high-priest [He thereby renders her unfit for (marriage to) the priesthood, by reason of "zonah," even though the wife of an Israelite who was forced is permitted to her husband], a divorcée and a chalutzah to a regular Cohein [And a divorcée, too — if she is the daughter of a Cohein, such cohabitation renders her unfit to eat the terumah of her father's house], a mamzereth and a Nethinah to an Israelite [This does not refer to rendering her unfit for the priesthood, for she is already unfit, but it is stated in reference to he'arah, to make he'arah subject to stripes, as consummated intercourse], the daughter of an Israelite to a Nathin or to a mamzer — he thereby renders her unfit, and there is no distinction (in this regard) between one type of intercourse and another.
