There are many points of dicussion:

What are the key words and concepts that we know first before defining the ecological niche?

Which are the limits of a niche?

There are empty niches (vacancies), or just about habitats?

It is important to note the role of species within the niche?

It is posible talk about ecological niche when is only living one species in a habitat (i.e. Extreme conditions where just one species can get in, or first colonizators)? in this question maybe could exist if there is a viable populations that are having intraespecific relationships.

Is is important take account about viable populations?

Which delimits an ecological niche?

The niche is a feature of the environment or organisms? or we are thinking about chicken or the egg?

Ecological niches change, are mutable?

Exists status (any function or profesion) of species within an ecological niche?

This is the definition that I made, but i'm not sure if is a good one:

The ecological niche is a n dimensional space-time characterized by a set of relationships among limiting factors (biotic and abiotic) and the presence of a one species (with existence of intraspecific relationships) or more, where they evolve through the dynamics of viable populations.

How can we bring together all These questions and others That May be Proposed to define the ecological niche?
