[edit] Levels of biological organization
Clearly the colony is greater than the organism or individual but smaller than the population itself smaller than the community... but other biological organizations exist bigger than a colony and smaller than population, for all the biological levels of organization the net lacks any proper detail and wikipedia does not even mentions the existance of this, there is no list... Someone with proper knowledge must make one please. -Herle King 10:04, 28 February 2007 (UTC)).
[edit] "individual organisms from a colony can ... survive on their own"???
Not true in the case of Siphonophora. The zooids cannot survive on their own.[1] Either Siphonophora are not colonial, or that phrase is innacurate. 66.92.53.49 19:49, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
