Sympatric incipient speciation of spiny mice Acomys at "Evolution Canyon," Israel.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 21 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

Does the paucity of empirical evidence of sympatric speciation in nature reflect reality, despite theoretical support? Or is it due to inappropriate searches in nature with overly restrictive assumptions and an incorrect null hypothesis? Spiny mice, Acomys, described here at Evolution Canyon (EC) incipiently and sympatrically speciate owing to microclimatic interslope divergence. The opposite slopes at EC vary...
