EOL has data for 19 attributes, including:

abundance
- URI: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C70589
- Definition: Relative degree of plentifulness.
show all records
uncommon
- URI: http://eol.org/schema/terms/uncommon
- Definition: Common species and uncommon species are designations used in ecology to describe the population status of a species. Commonness is closely related to abundance. Abundance refers to the frequency with which a species is found in controlled samples; in contrast, species are defined as common or uncommon based on their overall presence in the environment. A species may be locally abundant without being common.
