The term "ochlospecies" does indeed come from this root but it has a quite
different meaning.  As I understand it (remembering back to Frank White's
lectures when I was an undergraduate), the term refers to widespread
"species" that show extensive, geographically-structured, morphological
variation.

I would like to know if someone use term ochlospecies in entomology?
