Cases of sympatric existence of two subspecies of one species are known in birds and in reptiles.
The sympatric existence of the terminal subspecies of the Sorex vagrans rassenkreis is made possible by marked differences between them in size and in ecological preference.
Two cases of sympatric occurrence are known for the species of Syrrhophus in western Mexico: modestus and nivocolimae are sympatric in southern Jalisco and pipilans nebulosus and rubrimaculatus are sympatric in southeastern Chiapas.
The sympatric occurrence of morphologically similar species in this genus has led me to adopt a conservative approach to the degree of difference philosophy.
Syrrhophus cystignathoides and leprus are apparently sympatric in central Veracruz.
The sympatric occurrence of modestus and nivocolimae is significant; morphologically, they might otherwise be regarded as subspecies.

One of the few cases of sympatry within the genus Syrrhophus involves this species; modestus and nivocolimae are known to be sympatric at one locality in southwestern Jalisco, Mexico.
Sympatric occurrence serves as an indicator of specific distinctness and is one of the more practical tests of species validity when cross-breeding experiments are not possible.
The data indicate that the calls of related sympatricspecies differ more than the calls of related allopatric species.
From its upland distribution the species followed streams down to both the Caribbean and Pacific lowlands, where it is sympatric with S.
Regardless of their respective breeding habits, sympatric species have calls that differ notably.
In summarizing this discussion of the breeding calls of Smilisca we want to point out what seem to be important differences in the calls that may prevent interspecific hybridization in sympatric species of Smilisca.
Consequently, in some areas it is sympatric with S.
Today, sympatric species have different breeding habits and breeding calls which reinforce the differences in morphology.
Isolating mechanisms in threesympatric tree frogs in the Canal Zone.
We have not found tadpoles of two species of Smilisca in the same body of water and therefore cannot offer observations on ecological relationships in sympatric situations.
We postulate that these differences evolved to support the reproductive isolation of the sympatric species.
If hybridization did occur, the differences in mating call subsequently were enhanced, thereby providing a valid isolating mechanism in sympatric populations.
