The problem connected with the development of integrated ideology of cognition of biological diversity is considered. The ideology is based on the use of universal information systems, including the necessity of formalization of the concept and terminological means.

Its description is presented for the population-species and ecosystem levels of organization of the living matter. A group of terms related to the term of taxocene is considered separately.
