Now, that the hermeneutics is coming into being again, there are sufficient reasons to determine the set of interpretation processes in organisms as biohermeneutics and the field of interpretation of biologists' activity as hermeneutics of biology. The basic category of biohermeneutics and hermeneutics of biology is enlogue (cf dialogue in M. Buber sense). Enlogue is quasipersonal interaction between Living Beings or Living Being and Sensible Being when one enlogue's participant is projecting his organization into organization of other participant(s). On this reason a concept is developed of the world as a net of actual and potential enlogues, instrumental investigation as reduced enlogues, biological interaction as special type of enlogue, etc.
