Sympatric groups frequently show a greater ability to discriminate between their own species and other closely related species than do allopatric groups. This is shown in the study of hybrid zones . It is also apparent in the differences in levels of prezygotic isolation (by factors that prevent formation of a viable zygote ) in both sympatric ...
