Example Horse and Zebra - A "zorse" is an offspring between a male mountain zebra (Equus
zebra) and a female domesticated horse (Equus caballus). zorses are infertile - It is possible for
these horses and zebras to mate under natural conditions, but fairly unusual because their ranges
do not overlap.

Bacterium causing human TB Bacterium causing cow TB - Both bacteria belong to the genus
Mycobacterium. - Assume the bacterium causing human TB came from the bacterium causing
cow TB and the bacterium causing each form of TB is exclusive to each organism. - These
different bacteria are morphologically similar but were shown to be reciprocally monophyletic
using genetic sequencing. - The bacteria causing TB in these different organisms shared an
evolutionary past and may share the same evolutionary fate but this is just speculation and
remains inconclusive.
Mvcocepurus ant and social parasite Figure. A queen of the social parasite Mycocepurus
castrator standing on the host queen's back. The photograph was taken in a laboratory nest, set up
at So Paulo State University in Rio Claro, Brazil in October 2008. The photograph was taken by
Scott Solomon. - Mycocepurus goeldii is a fungus-growing ant species that was found to host a
parasitic ant species called Mycocepurus castrator in southern Brazil - M. castrator was only
found within nests of its host species and this location was in the center of the range of its host
species M. goeldii - These two species are morphologically similar but distinct by M. castrator
being smaller and more shiny than M. goeldii - Based on a molecular phylogeny it was shown
that the parasite and host species are distinct lineages and reproductively isolated, but there is
evidence of incomplete lineage sorting - Also, it seems like the parasite originated from within
the range of the host species and the host and parasite are each others' closest relatives - Based
on the different lifestyles of the species, it is likely they will have different evolutionary
tendencies and fates
