Abstract
Some examples of marine animal and plant communities with a structure determined by competitive inter-species relationships are discussed. It has been shown that the ranked species structure of these communities obeys a geometric progression, whose coefficient does not differ significantly from the constant exp(–1) = 0.368. A relationship between a certain parameter of this progression and the species diversity of a community has been found.
