A. Biological species
‘Species are groups of actually or potentially interbreeding natural
populations, which are reproductively isolated from each other.’ Mayr
Reproductive isolating mechanisms (RIMs)
B. Ecological species
niche
C. Morphological species
D. Phylogenetic species
• A species consists of a population or group of populations that
share a common evolutionary fate through time.
Fossil record
• Molecular clocks
DNA - DNA hybridization
98.7%

III. Species concepts
Problems with definitions
• convergent evolution
• asexual species
• promiscuous
• ecotypes
• fossil record
