The most common OntoClean distinction is rigidity. See http://semanticweb.org/wiki/OntoClean See http://semanticweb.org/wiki/OntoClean

The axiomitization of OntoClean in S5 moda … The axiomitization of OntoClean in S5 modal logic entails certain constraints between classes in a taxonomy. These constraints are well within the expressive power of OWL, given the ability to view the *classes* as an "abox" and declare their metaproperties using the rdf:type relation. One very simple way to accomplish this, is to take the OWL version of an ontology, and in a text editor replace owl:class with "http://www.ontoclean.org/ontoclean-dl-v1.owl#Class", and import this ontology. Then add the rdf:type relations to indicate which classes are rigid, dependent, etc. Any OWL reasoner will be able to find inconsistencies in the taxonomy as a result. consistencies in the taxonomy as a result.
