Patterns of species distribution across space, time, and taxonomic groups have long fascinated scientists. The origins of species diversity lie in speciation events, and uneven species richness is evidence of different rates of speciation. Understanding the drivers of biodiversity has taken two approaches: either focusing on allelic frequency variation and quantitative trait evolution within species (microevolution) or examining speciation rates and phenotypic evolution across species (macroevolution). However, a conceptual gap persists between these fields that questions the ability of microevolutionary processes to explain macroevolutionary rates. The concept of speciation is a critical…
