DescriptionRing Species (gene flow around a barrier).png
English: A schematic representing a ring species. Individuals are able to successfully reproduce (exchange genes) with members of their own species in adjacent populations. Individuals of the population, separated by a barrier, are unable to reproduce when they come into contact again. This process represents a form of speciation occurring with gene flow.
This biology image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Ring Species (gene flow around a barrier).svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
