Abstract
In modern theoretical literature, there is wide use of a contrast of the notions of microevolution and macroevolution. Microvevolution is understood to mean intraspecific reorganizations; macroevolution, the complex of processes leading to the formation of taxa of higher order. The process of speciation links micro- and macroevolution in the single process of phylogenetis.
