A biocenosis (biocenose, biocoenose, biotic community, biological community, ecological community), coined by Karl Möbius in 1877, describes the interacting organisms living together in a habitat (biotope). This term is rarely used in English, as this concept has not been popularized in anglophone countries. Instead, English-speaking scientists normally use the terms ecosystems or communities. Based on the concept of biocenosis, ecological communities can take in various forms *Zoocenosis for the faunal community, *Phytocenosis for the flora community, *Microbiocenosis for the microbial community. The geographical extent of a biocenose is limited by the requirement of a more or less uniform species composition. ==Ecosystems== (詳細はecosystem, originally defined by Tansley (1935), is a biotic community (or biocenosis) along with its physical environment (or ''biotope''). In ecological studies, biocenosis is the emphasis on relationships between species in an area. These relationships are an additional consideration to the interaction of each species with the physical environment. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Biocoenosis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
