Image: Cospeciation (5 processes) - with key
Description: The five processes of host-parasite associations in which speciation occurs or does not occur. From top to bottom: Cospeciation occurs when both the host and parasite speciate concurrently Speciation occurs by the parasite switching hosts and evolves in reproductive isolation The parasite speciates on the same host due to another factor unrelated to the host The parasite goes extinct on a host The host speciates but the parasite does not end up reproductively isolated (in this case, the parasite may end up on both species, not shown in picture)
