Species biodiversity encompasses the number of different kinds of organisms within individual communities or ecosystems (species diversity). It also includes the richness and complexity of a biological community, such as the number of niches, trophic levels, and ecological processes that capture energy, sustain food webs, and recycle materials within this system (ecosystem diversity). Additionally, it can refer to the measure of the variety of different versions of the same genes within individual species (genetic diversity).
