Identified population clusters should motivate future behavioral and ecological research regarding within-species biodiversity and speciation mechanisms.
Phylogeny and Speciation of Felids.
The "Evolution Canyon" model is a "hot spot" of evolution in action of biodiversity, adaptation, and speciation across life and is appropriate for testing many mysteries of Evolutionary Biology caused by interslope divergent stresses at a microsite (fig. 6).
The fucoid brown algae (Heterokontophyta, Phaeophyceae) are increasingly the focus of ecological genetics, biodiversity, biogeography and speciation research.
The discovery of cryptic species-level variation has important implications for characterising biodiversity and for studies of speciation.
Fig. 3 Rate trends in biodiversity (change in total species extant during an interval), extinction (loss of species during an interval), and speciation (formation of new species) during the Middle and Late Devonian.
Colonization is a spatial process central to several fundamental concepts in ecology, including species coexistence, disturbance and recovery, succession, metapopulations, biodiversity, invasive species, and speciation.
Rates of instantaneous biodiversity change, speciation, and extinction were calculated from this data for each clade individually and for all three clades combined during each of ten temporal bins.
The diversification of life through local adaptation of populations and speciation has created the tremendous biodiversity found on the Earth.
