Abstract: In this paper the global behavior of solutions of a class of ordinary differential equations modelling a biological community of species is determined. The community consists of two competing subcommunities each of which has the property that each pair of species of the subcommunity interact in a mutually beneficial manner. Sufficient conditions are presented that the two subcommunities can coexist in a globally asymptotically stable steady state.
