 Biological communities, large and small, are structured by ordered interactions between organisms, and between organisms and their environments. These interactions take many forms: physical, chemical, social and behavioural. The consequences of such interactions may be beneficial to the partners, or deleterious, but all are part of the extraordinarily complex arrangement that we refer to as ‘life’.
