CHAPTER 14 / Speciation 421
On reinforcement generally, Noor (1999) is a recent review and also look at Howard
(1993). Servedio (2001) expands the topic, looking at other ways that natural selection
can act on prezygotic isolation. More specific studies include Saetre et al. (1997) on
Corsican birds, and Higgie et al. (2000) on Australian fruitflies. Coyne & Orr’s (1989)
study (updated in 1997) is also important.
On hybrid speciation, see Arnold (1997), Rieseberg (1997, 2001), and Rieseberg &
Wendel (1993). Soltis & Soltis (1999), Ramsey & Schemske (1998), and Leitch &
Bennett (1997) discuss polyploidy in plants, a closely related topic. Grant (1981) is a
classic and covers plant speciation in general. See also general books on plant evolution,
such as Niklas (1997). Arnold (1997) and Dowling & Secor (1997) discuss evidence for
animals too. A further case study that I did not cover in the text is the sunflower
Helianthus in southwest USA; Rieseberg & Wendel (1993) and Arnold (1997) both discuss
it, and see Rieseberg et al. (1996) and Ungerer et al. (1998) for marvellous results
on the genetics. Hybrid fitness is a further topic. The classic theory is the Dobzhansky–
Muller theory, suggesting that hybrid fitness will be low. But Veen et al. (2001) have
interesting results on hybrid fitness, showing how hybrids are not as unfit as might
naively be thought. See Arnold (1997) on this generally, as well as Grant & Grant’s
(2002) work on Darwin’s finches (discussed in Chapter 13).
On parapatric speciation see Endler (1977), which includes an important discussion
of the biogeographic evidence for hybrid zones. Harrison (1993) is a multiauthor book
about hybrid zones. See also Chapter 17 of this text, and the Hewitt references in it. On
the European crows, see Cook (1975).
On sympatric speciation, Mayr (1942, 1963) is the classic critic, though see Mayr
(2001) for his current view. Guy Bush has inspired much work, and the book edited by
Howard & Berlocher (1998) was a Festschrift for Bush: it includes several papers on host
shifts and Rhagoletis, as well as on other topics in sympatric speciation. The issues of
Nature (1996), vol. 382, p. 298, and of Science for September 13, 1996 have news features
on a conference again mainly about Bush’s work. Via (2001) reviews sympatric
speciation, and Barraclough & Nee (2001) discuss the use of phylogenetic evidence, in
the special issue of Trends in Ecology and Evolution. For the cihlids see Stiassny & Meyer
(1999) and Fryer (2001).
Panhuis et al. (2001) have a piece about sexual selection in the special issue of Trends
in Ecology and Evolution. See also Turelli et al. (2001) therein, and Schluter (2000), as
well as the references I give in the text. On the second modern trend, identifying individual
genes, Period is also worth looking into besides Odysseus as it may influence
prezygotic isolation in fruitflies a see Ritchie & Phillips (1998).
The classic treatises on speciation by Mayr (1942, 1963) and Dobzhansky (1970)
remain good, if dated, introductions. See Mayr (2001, and Mayr & Ashlock 1991) for
his more recent ideas; Coyne (1994) discusses speciation, particularly in relation to
Mayr’s ideas. The multiauthor book edited by Otte & Endler (1989) is becoming dated,
but introduces many themes in speciation.
