	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy.

Extensive, specific biological examples of each type of genetic isolation/speciation would allow for a greater understanding of their definitions, and how genetic isolation can lead to this type of evolution.

An explanation of how evolution through genetic isolation can be highly influenced and driven by differences in a population's environment. Yes, an extrinsic barrier can cause genetic isolation and speciation, but how do these barriers cause this speciation and evolution?

The subspeciation of the giraffe, Giraffa camelopardalis, could be added as a great biological example of allopatric speciation, as climatic and geographical separations within the species have lead to changes in their phylogenetics and evolutionary characteristics, shown through an analysis of their mitochondrial DNA. ^[1] Lauterbach.7 (talk) 21:45, 1 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
