After almost 30 years of development, it is not controversial issue that the so--called Tsallis entropy provides a useful approach to studying the complexity where the non--additivity of the systems under consideration is frequently met. Also, in the ecological research, Tsallis entropy or in other words, q --entropy has been found itself as a generalized approach to define diversity indices including Shannon--Wiener and Simpson indices. As a further stage of development in theoretical research, a thermodynamic theory based on Tsallis entropy or diversity indices in ecology has to be constructed for ecological systems to provide knowledge of ecological macroscopic behaviors. The standard method of theoretical physics is used in the manipulation and the equivalence between phenomenological thermodynamics and ecological aspects is the purpose of the ongoing research.
