Abstract
The holobiont mind is a recent theory in the movement of 4E cognition grounded in gut‐brain axis (GBA) research. The theory claims that the mind is an emergent property which arises from the multi-genomic morphology of a composite animal agent, in ever-changing interactions with its ecological niche. We claim that the theory is unnecessary since GBA findings can be easily accommodated by previous and broader concepts like embodiment, enaction, and the extensive mind theory without making the picture more complex than it is.
