Abstract
A recent paper (Manceau and Lambert in bioRxiv, 2017. https://doi.org/10.1101/075580 ) developed a novel approach for describing two well-defined notions of 'species' based on a phylogenetic tree and a phenotypic partition. In this paper, we explore some further combinatorial properties of this approach and describe an extension that allows an arbitrary number of phenotypic partitions to be combined with a phylogenetic tree for these two species notions.
