Process of species change
• Speciation, the origin of new species, is at the
focal point of evolutionary theory
Scale of evolution:
• Microevolution consists of changes in allele
frequency in a population over time
• Macroevolution refers to broad patterns of
evolutionary change above the species level

Concept 24.1: The biological species
concept emphasizes reproductive isolation
• Biological Species Concept (one way to divide species):
– A species is a group of populations whose members can breed
and produce viable, fertile offspring
– Ability to mate = formation of a species
– Gene flow between populations holds together the phenotype of
a population (ongoing exchange of alleles)
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
It’s all about ability to breed
(a) Similarity between different species
(b) Diversity within a species
Reproductive Isolation is the driving force
behind Speciation
• A new species will form when reproductive isolation occurs
– Absence of gene flow
• Reproductive Isolation:
– The existence of biological factors (barriers) that prevent two
individuals of a species from mating and producing viable and
fertile offspring

Limitations of the Biological Species Concept
• The biological species concept cannot be
applied to fossils or asexual organisms
(including all prokaryotes)
• The biological species concept emphasizes
absence of gene flow
• However, gene flow can occur between
distinct species
– HYBRIDS: For example, grizzly bears and
polar bears can mate to produce “grolar
bears”

Other Definitions of Species
1. morphological species concept:
– A species is characterized by its body shape
– It applies to sexual and asexual species but relies on
subjective criteria
2. ecological species concept:
– A species is characterized by its ecological niche
– It applies to sexual and asexual species and emphasizes
the role of disruptive selection
3. phylogenetic species concept:
– A species is the smallest group of individuals that share a
common ancestor
– It applies to sexual and asexual species, but it can be
difficult to determine the degree of difference required for
separate species

Concept 24.2: Speciation can take place
with or without geographic separation
• Speciation can occur in two ways:
– Allopatric speciation
– Sympatric speciation
• What do the route words mean?

Figure 24.5
(a) Allopatric speciation.
A population forms a
new species while
geographically isolated
from its parent population.
(b) Sympatric speciation.
A subset of a population
forms a new species
without geographic
separation.
Allopatric (“Other Country”) Speciation
• In allopatric speciation, gene flow is
interrupted or reduced when a population is
divided into geographically isolated
subpopulations
– For example, the flightless cormorant of the
Galápagos likely originated from a flying
species on the mainland
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Process of Allopatric Speciation
• The definition of barrier depends on the ability of a
population to disperse
– For example, a canyon may create a barrier for
small rodents, but not birds, coyotes, or pollen

Sympatric (“Same Country”) Speciation
• In sympatric speciation, speciation takes place
in geographically overlapping populations
• How can this occur if parent species is in same
area? Provide an example.

Sympatric (“Same Country”) Speciation
• In sympatric speciation, speciation takes place
in geographically overlapping populations
• In a sympatric speciation, various factors can
limit gene flow:
– Polyploidy
– Habitat differentiation
– Sexual selection
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Polyploidy
• Polyploidy is the presence of extra sets of
chromosomes due to accidents during cell division
– Polyploidy is much more common in plants than in animals.
Why do you think?
• An autopolyploid is an individual with more than two
chromosome sets, derived from one species
– When would this originate?
• An allopolyploid is a species with multiple sets of
chromosomes derived from different species (see
diagram on proceeding slides)

• Many important crops (oats, cotton, potatoes,
tobacco, and wheat) are polyploids

Habitat Differentiation
• Sympatric speciation can also result from the
appearance of new ecological niches
• For example, the North American maggot fly can
live on native hawthorn trees as well as more
recently introduced apple trees

Sexual Selection: Sexual selection for mates of different colors has

Concept 24.3: Hybrid zones reveal factors
that cause reproductive isolation
• A hybrid zone is a region in which members of
different species mate and produce hybrids
• Can you think of an example of where and how
this would occur?
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Patterns Within Hybrid Zones
• A hybrid zone can occur in a single band where
adjacent species meet
– For example, two species of toad in the genus
Bombina interbreed in a long and narrow hybrid
zone (see next slide)
– Would you expect hybrids to have more, less and
the same fitness as the parents?

Hybrid Zones over Time
• When closely related species meet in a hybrid
zone, there are three possible outcomes:
– Reinforcement
– Fusion
– Stability

Reinforcement: Strengthening Reproductive
Barriers
• The reinforcement of barriers occurs when
hybrids are less fit than the parent species
• Over time, the rate of hybridization decreases
• Where reinforcement occurs, reproductive barriers
should be stronger for sympatric than allopatric
species
– For example, in populations of flycatchers, males
are more similar in allopatric populations than
sympatric populations

Fusion: Weakening Reproductive Barriers
• If hybrids are as fit as parents, there can be
substantial gene flow between species
– How would increasing gene flow affect separate
species?
• For example, researchers think that pollution
in Lake Victoria has reduced the ability of
female cichlids to distinguish males of
different species
– How would this affect different cichlid species?

The Time Course of Speciation
• By what tools can we determine rate of
speciation?
– fossil record,
– morphological data, or
– molecular data

Patterns in the Fossil Record
• The fossil record includes examples of species
that appear suddenly, persist essentially
unchanged for some time, and then apparently
disappear
• Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould coined the
term punctuated equilibria to describe periods of
apparent stasis punctuated by sudden change
– Compare punctuated equlibrium to uniformitarianism.
– Which model is more correct?

Speciation Rates
• The punctuated pattern in the fossil record and
evidence from lab studies suggest that speciation
can be rapid
– For example, the sunflower Helianthus anomalus
originated from the hybridization of two other
sunflower species

Average rates of speciation
• The interval between speciation events can range
from 4,000 years (some cichlids) to 40 million
years (some beetles), with an average of 6.5
million years
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Studying the Genetics of Speciation
• A fundamental question of evolutionary biology
persists: How many genes change when a new
species forms?
For example:
• In Japanese Euhadra snails, the direction of
shell spiral affects mating and is controlled by a
single gene
• In monkey flowers (Mimulus), two loci affect flower
color, which influences pollinator preference
– Pollination that is dominated by either hummingbirds
or bees can lead to reproductive isolation of the
flowers
