Colony, in zoology, a group of organisms of one species that live and interact closely with each other. A colony differs from an aggregation, which is a group whose members have no interaction. Small, functionally specialized, attached organisms called polyps in cnidarians and zooids in bryozoans form colonies and may be modified for capturing prey, feeding, or reproduction. Colonies of social insects (e.g., ants, bees) usually include castes with different responsibilities.
Temporary breeding colonies are formed by many birds. Certain birds may require the presence of many of their kind to stimulate reproductive activities. Others (e.g., gulls) breed in colonies because of a limited breeding habitat and to coordinate their efforts in protecting the nests from predators.
