Summary

Description
English: A three-dimensional space representing speciation (open circle indicates origin population, solid circle represents complete reproductive isolation). Three axes represent factors involved in the speciation process: spatial (geographic differentiation or isolation), mate-choice differentiation, and ecological differentiation). The history of speciation event is indicated by the varying paths that are taken. A fourth dimension is time, indicating a temporal factor contributing to speciation (allochrony). In allochrony, the left box indicates synchrony (e.g. breeding times) while the right box indicates asynchrony (e.g. daily, seasonal, or yearly breeding times).[1][2][3] The explanations for the lines are as follows:
  • A is an example without allochrony. Speciation results from a combination of geographic and mate-choice isolation.
  • B starts with geographic separation, mate choice furthers isolation, completed by allochrony.
  • C begins with differentiation in mate-choice followed by allochrony resulting in isolation.
  • D A combination of mating and ecological factors accompany allochrony to reach isolation.
