Also, Martin, you have to admit that I've come a long way from going to VEG meetings without knowing what allopatry meant. From Wordnik.com. [Pseudo-Rant: Population Genetics...] Reference

Intriguingly, the Great black-backed gull L. marinus was not an outgroup to the Herring gull-Lesser black-backed complex as usually thought, but was actually nested within the complex and probably evolved (in allopatry with L. argentatus) in northeastern N. America. From Wordnik.com. [Archive 2006-02-01] Reference
The classical explanation of the presence of such polymorphic species is that during the last ice ages the South American rainforests were assumed to have been fragmented and the species to have evolved in allopatry in the remaining forest refugia before the gaps were reforested.
