Although the sympatry of these morphs might prove interesting i.e. are these morphs geographical, environmental, or random?. From Wordnik.com. [Anguispira alternata angulata] Reference
Dr. Mallet's seminar was about the speciation processes in Heliconius butterflies of South America and whether or not these butterflies speciate in allopatry or sympatry. From Wordnik.com. [Archive 2006-05-01] Reference
This applies globally as well as locally: despite continuous, near-global sympatry between domestic dogs and wolves, hybridization has hardly occurred and only one mtDNA type is shared. From Wordnik.com. [Archive 2006-10-01] Reference
One long standing controversy in evolutionary biology is about the respective contributions sympatry and allopatry have made during the origins of the millions of species that now exist. From Wordnik.com. [Archive 2006-05-01] Reference
Intriguingly, it appears to have been common and morphologically distinct for tens of thousands of years over a wide geographical area, despite sympatry with ‘normal’ C. lupus (Olsen 1985, Koler-Matznick 2002). From Wordnik.com. [Archive 2006-10-01] Reference
Using contemporary distributions of the species, we modeled paleoclimate during the time of sympatry the MWP to be significantly warmer (+3.2 deg C annual minimum temperature) and slightly drier (-24 mm annual precipitation) than present.

Contemporary evolution of reproductive isolation and phenotypic divergence in sympatry along a migratory divide. From Wordnik.com. [John Wills Lloyd] Reference
The evolution of reproductive isolation in sympatry is rare, relying on strong selection along steep ecological gradients. From Wordnik.com. [John Wills Lloyd] Reference
In particular, it had been contentious whether selection could act strongly and consistently enough in sympatry to separate a united gene pool. From Wordnik.com. [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference
The genetic divergence in sympatry exceeds that of allopatric blackcaps separated by 800 km and is associated with diverse phenotypic divergence. From Wordnik.com. [John Wills Lloyd] Reference
M. fuliginosus and M. giganteus within the region of sympatry corresponded, both genetically and morphologically, to their respective species elsewhere in their distributions. From Wordnik.com. [Naturejobs - All Jobs] Reference
Using contemporary distributions of the species, we modeled paleoclimate during the time of sympatry to be significantly warmer (+3.2°C annual minimum temperature) and slightly drier (à⣃’’24 mm annual precipitation) than present, resembling values projected for California in the next 70–100 yr.
