Doesnt need to be an island. There are several geological and geographical "islands" that may have already contributed to this occurring. I always look at E. slowinski as a possible E. guttata by E. emoryi relict integrade that has finally made it to species status. Same with goini/meansi or whatever you prefer to call that critter. I always liked Appalachicola king LOL!! I think most of the usual suspects are all at the species or subspecies level, and I am not sure if there are any current genus identified as fairly new relict related hybrids for sure. Very interesting post OLDherper!!!
