On the origin of species through heteropatric differentiation a review and a model of speciation in migratory animals
Differentiation and speciation without extended isolation appear to be common among migratory animals. Historical oversight of this is probably due to temporal distortion in distribution maps and a tendency to consider that lineages had different historical traits, such as being sedentary or much le...
