in my case, species are fragments of a lattice (viral capsid). Because the lattice curvature is not uniform, one could define multiple sets of species each corresponding to a local shape property. This means that some individual particles from different species would physically overlap in the space of the tomogram. Am I correct to assume that M does not care of such a "clash"? (In ideal case, I would have multiple species that would together describe the complete assembly, with multiple physical overlaps within the tomogram space).

Overlapping density is not modelled explicitly and the low resolution information in your data will match projected maps less well because of this - despite this, M should still perform very well in these cases :-)
