Abstract
The most widely discussed review of models of speciation in animals (White, 1978) lists seven possible modes:
-
1.
Gradual divergence of two large populations after their geographic isolation
-
2.
The founder principle
-
3.
De facto differentiation of two races following extinction of the geographic intermediates
-
4.
Local steepening of a cline
-
5.
Selection against hybridization of strongly differentiated local races (area effects)
-
6.
Stasipatric speciation: spread of chromosomal rearrangements aided by high levels of inbreeding
-
7.
Sympatric speciation, in the strict sense, by assortative mating
