Las especies como linajes de poblaciones microevolutivamente interconectadas

Gustavo Caponi

Resumen


Species as a lineage of populations with micro-evolutionary connections.

Species can be defined as a lineage of populations where micro-evolutionary isolation was never set up. `Micro-evolutionary isolation' between two populations occur, if and only if, the micro-evolutionary processes affecting one of them (namely, natural selection, genetic drift, sexual selection, mutation and/or migration) cannot reach the other. This is a delimitation of the evolutionary species concept that is compatible and in accordance with the conceptual division of labor that some authors have proposed to solve the problems raised when defining the concept 'species'.

 

Key words: Definition of species; evolutionary species concept; micro-evolutionary isolation.
