AUTECOLOGY

Specialty Definition: Autecology

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Autecology is the study of the ecology of individual species. That is, the behaviour including physiological responses, of the individual within its natural environment. This contrasts with synecology in which the system as a whole is studied.
