Meinong's jungle

Meinong's jungle is a term used to describe the repository of non-existent objects in the ontology of Alexius Meinong.[1] An example of such an object is a "round square", which cannot exist definitionally and yet can be the subject of logical inferences, such as that it is both "round" and "square".
