Intrinsic reproductive isolation happen when two lineages different species stop reproduce with one another even they encounter with each other: extrinsic isolation causes by geographical isolation. Biological species concept: species are defined by the ability of their measures to reproduce with one another and to be unable to reproduce with the members of other species. Phylogenetic species concept: species are clades, like other in the taxonomic hierarchy (genera, subspecies, etc. ), that biologists have chosen to assign to the species rank for practical reasons.
