Synopsis

Hugh Paterson's ideas on species and speciation have become increasingly important to an understanding of evolution. He contends that speciation is not an adaptive process, but a passive consequence of the adaptation of intraspecific bonding mechanisms to a new environment. The conceptual basis of his research has come to be called the "Recognition Concept of Species" involving the specific-mate recognition system.
