Description
"Sympatric speciation is the evolution of a new species from a surviving ancestral species while both continue to inhabit the same geographic region. In evolutionary biology and biogeography, sympatric and sympatry are terms referring to organisms whose ranges overlap so that they occur together at least in some places. If these organisms are closely related (e.g. sister species), such a distribution may be the result of sympatric speciation."
When i read this i realized that this was exactly what is happening in Batrachiterra right now, so i drew this sketch of the Cane toad(left) and its descendants, the Water cane toad(middle) and the Carmesim toad(right). Will turn this into a full piece later(hopefully).
