Animal ecology
2. As a group of taxonomically related animals?

REFERENCES ON THE ECOLOGICAL STANDPOINT
In this I have listed only those papers which have seemed to me
particularly significant because of their point of view, regardless of
whether or not they are primarily zoölogical or specifically mention
ecology.

An extremely suggestive paper which should be read by every ecological
student.

Oyster-Bank as a Biocönose, or a Social Community”; on page 723 he
proposes the word “biocœnosis.” An illuminating paper.
