I think it might be better to have these terms in PATO directly.

ramonawalls commented 5 years ago

Although I think these terms are out of scope for PCO, we need to figure out the PCO term in which they should inhere. I'm not sure if any of the existing terms (below) are quite right.

population of organisms: A collection of organisms, all of the same species, that live in the same place.

species as a collection of organism: A collection of organisms that has as parts every organism of given species and no organisms of any other species.

single species collection of organism: A material entity that has as parts two or more organisms, viruses, or viroids of the same species and no members of any other species.

Population of organisms probably works, but often people use these adjectives to describe species as a collection of organism, in which case it would be better to use their common parent, single species collection of organism.
