How To Use Sympatry In A Sentence

Conversely, if genetic exchange occurs between the two lineages in sympatry, interlineage populations should exhibit much less differentiation than should geographically distant NW populations.
This applies globally as well as locally: despite continuous, near-global sympatry between domestic dogs and wolves, hybridization has hardly occurred and only one mtDNA type is shared. Archive 2006-10-01
In addition, hosts in sympatry were less likely to reject a mimetic model egg than a non-mimetic one.
We reasoned that during the period of sympatry on Whitewing Mtn, the climate must have been compatible for all the species, i.e., fundamental niche spaces overlapped Jackson and Overpeck, 2000. Millar et al: The Sierra Nevada MWP « Climate Audit
Using contemporary distributions of the species, we modeled paleoclimate during the time of sympatry the MWP to be significantly warmer (+3.2 deg C annual minimum temperature) and slightly drier (-24 mm annual precipitation) than present Millar et al: The Sierra Nevada MWP « Climate Audit

Although the sympatry of these morphs might prove interesting i.e. are these morphs geographical, environmental, or random? Anguispira alternata angulata
As revealed by comparisons of molecular and morphologic data in modern species, non-hybrid populations form distinct morphologic clusters in sympatry, which do not overlap and are usually separated by gaps.
The demonstration of genetic distinctness, or genetic differentiation, between samples from natural populations, especially in areas of sympatry, is often used as a criterion to erect new species.
In addition, their definition of ‘superspecies’ makes exceptions for narrow sympatry, which obliterates the definition, because ‘allospecies’ should form the components of a superspecies.
Although the two species were not found in sympatry, a population of P. elegans was found only 9 km away from a P. actinia population in Santo Antonio da Patrulha county.
Intriguingly, it appears to have been common and morphologically distinct for tens of thousands of years over a wide geographical area, despite sympatry with ‘normal’ C. lupus (Olsen 1985, Koler-Matznick 2002). Archive 2006-10-01
As I begin to map more precisely the areas where elegant and Gambel's quail co-occur (called sympatry) and occur separately (allopatry), I am joined by an assistant, Rafael Angel Arena Wong. NYT > Home Page
