1947 G. D. H. Carpenter in Nature 11 Oct. 509/1 New terminology is required, and on consultation Prof. L. W. Grensted has suggested the following: an ‘ochlotic’ species is one adapted for living in a crowd: it is an example of ‘ochlosis’, and is ‘ochlochromatic’ in coloration (οχλος = a crowd).

1948 Amer. Naturalist 82 240 The term ‘ochlosis’ (from Greek ‘ochlos’, a crowd) has been devised for this: a species is ‘ochlotic’ when adapted for living in a crowd.
