Speciation and Species Selection
24
speciation: formation of new species
Morphospecies: species are clearly distinct, demarcated by current natural discontinuities between them.
Paleospecies: Viewed historically, through time, discovered fossil intermediates that fill in the missing gaps
allopatric: 2 groups of species are isolated geographically, and diverge into separate species.
peripatric: An isolated group is severed from the original population
parapatric: The population is continuous, but the population does not mate randomly.
sympatric: Exploring a new niche may automatically reduce gene flow with individuals exploiting the other niche.
Ecological: lions and tigers occupy different habitats
Temporal : Differences in the timing of mating prevent different species from interbreeding.
Behavioral : barrier occured during courtship
Mechanical : Anatomical differences between species make mating physically impossible.
Gametic : isolation arises when the gametes of different species cannot fuse.
hybrid: offspring of parents from two genetically distinct populations
Inviability: zygote fails to develop into an adult hybrid.
Sterility: Hybrids live to adulthood but cannot produce viable gametes.
Species selection: process responsible for the proliferation of species that have lower extinction and higher speciation rates.
Microevolution: small scale evolutionary change caused by changes in allele
Macroevolution: large scale evolutionary events over long time spans w/c results in phenotypic changes.
panmictic : genes are always intermixed, ever subjected to recombination and creation of new gene interactions
Species drift: morphological trends are generated because of speciation and extinction processes that are random with respect to within-population processes
hitch hiking: process where a given trait is proliferated in a clade, owing to its accidental association with a rapidly speciation group having relatively low extinction rates
wrights rule: shifting balance theory
coevolution: process of reciprocal evolutionary change in interacting species
Mullerian : describes the convergence of unpalatable models to a similar phenotype
Batesian : nontoxic species mimics toxic species
