Genetic Revolutions in Relation to Speciation Phenomena: The Founding of New Populations
- H. Carson, A. Templeton
- Biology
- 1 November 1984
As a dynamic process of genetic change, evolution manifests itself in two ways: It produces adaptive characters, and it produces species. To recognize that evolution has occurred by studying these…
Evolution of drosophila on the newer hawaiian volcanoes

New behavioural patterns appear to have become established through novel but delicate genetic coadaptation of male and female behaviour and Preliminary evidence indicates that the behavioural attributes, as well as the bristle character, have a polygenic basis, held in balance by stabilizing sexual selection.
The Genetics of Speciation at the Diploid Level
- H. Carson
- BiologyAmerican Naturalist
- 1 January 1975
It is advanced that a diploid species has two differing systems of genetic variability, and speciation may occur as selection operates on the perturbed genetic system to organize new coadapted closed systems which come to characterize the new species.

Local populations at the base of an altitudinal cline were destroyed by two explosive eruptions within the last 2100 years, but natural recolonization restored the cline except for one young population that is genetically discordant with altitude.
DROSOPHILA OF HAWAII: SYSTEMATICS AND ECOLOGICAL GENETICS!

Indications suggest that the Hawaiian archipelago, or at least its present major islands, is now and always has been isolated by more than 3500 kilometers of unbroken ocean from any other continent or island group.

- 1 March 1983
Of 103 picture-winged Drosophila species endemic to the high Hawaiian islands, all but three are endemic to single islands or island complexes, and the ancestry of two Kauai species can be traced to newer islands, relating ultimately to Palearctic continental sources.
