The FOAF spec doesn't contain instance data Right, but the data has to be modelled somehow, so I figured that it might be superfluous, if Uniprot allready had a usable ontology for species. I find that there are some things there, e.g. <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://purl.uniprot.org/taxonomy/9447"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://purl.uniprot.org/core/Taxon"></rdf:type> <rank rdf:resource="http://purl.uniprot.org/core/Species"></rank> </rdf:Description> but indeed, this might not address all the issues you have. Perhaps there isn't a very clear separation between classes and instances, I wouldn't know. Still, I would have looked into the Uniprot core ontology, at least to create links and possibly reuse where it makes sense.
