Can you discard a trait already on a species to raise its Population or Body Size, or to create a new species?

The rulebook says a player discards a card to increase Body Size or Population or to create a species, and players confirm table traits give no benefit.

No. Population and Body Size increases and new species come only from discarding a card from your hand. A trait already on the table can be discarded or replaced, but that gives no extra increase or species.
