ferent ones. For example, some 34,000 species of spiders

have been described. 197
To better understand the evolution deception regarding
speciation, we first need to define geographic isolation.
Within any living species, there will be differences stem-
ming from genetic variation. If geographical obstacles such
as a mountain chain or river arise between individuals of a
species, and if they become isolated from one another, then

in all likelihood, within these two separated groups, differ-
ent variations will begin to dominate. 198
Assume that in one group (variation A), darker skin and
longer fur begin to predominate; and that another group
(variation B) has shorter fur and lighter color. The longer
the two populations remain separated from one another, the
sharper variations A and B will become. 199 Variations like
these, with clear morphological differences despite their be-
longing to the same species, are known as subspecies.

At this point, the speciation claim enters the picture.
Sometimes, after variations A and B have split away from
one another due to geographic isolation and are brought

We often commonly refer to various members of a class or order as
one single species—when these are actually a considerable number
of species with subtle differences to distinguish them. For example,
some 34,000 species of spider have been identified, but in daily life
we describe most of them simply as "spiders."
