No its the end results from each branch that cannot interbreed making them a separate species. There is not a problem in the fact that each end species can interbreed with the neighboring population. Its that at the end there are two different species, thats undeniable. They cannot interbreed and have offspring, so they are not a species by the definition of a species.

Ring species are anomalies by definition. You cannot use anomalies to explain the natural phenomenon that all species are subject too and assume that all species would be subject to this observation. There is no evidence of this being universal.

Ring species are not anomalies, they are natural examples of one species branching off resulting in a different species, this has happened in many different species. Genes and DNA confirm that Humans share a common ancestor with chimps and bonobos. Ring species just shows that it does happen in nature, not that it theoretically could happen.

Edited by Spookas Vilkas : 3/18/2015 6:26:49 AMRing species are most certainly anomalies. These supposed new species only occur when they are isolated which results in a reduction of genetic diversity. If this is the example of what happened for every species then every species would have reached a point where reproduction is not possible at all and species today would be less complex than the single celled organisms we developed from according to evolution. If this is your definitive evidence then we more biologically advanced in the past.

No, all that ring species show is that one organism can change into another one, ring species are just a very specific example.
