It seems to me also true the probability of mating itself may
change due
to mutations, and this is a form of of natural selection. The
gradual
development of an appearance change amongst a sub-population of a
species
could gradually isolate that group genetically, even though it is not
isolated geographically.
The classic example of this being an ongoing fact all at once in
the Here and Now, is
with "ring species":

This is quite an interesting web site. Thanks for posting it. I have
not had the time to read recent vortex posts, much less respond, so
I'm glad I came across your post.
Best regards,
