Other lineages went on to diversify spectacularly, resulting in hundreds of descendant species.
He is no larval being, but a full-grown male in his prime, and the prototype for our descendant species.
Wolfe and Tanai suggest A latahense may be a descendant species of A. palaeorufinerve.
There is the (spectacularly slim) possibility that a descendant species might still be around by then.but they won't be human*.
It is generally considered to have given rise to a number of descendant species and subspecies.
Speciation is the process where a species diverges into two or more descendant species.
In this view no clear line of demarcation exists between an ancestral species and a descendant species, unless splitting occurs.
For example, a fossil record may make it possible to determine the number of years between an ancestral species and a descendant species.
There is no clear line demarcating the ancestral species from the descendant species.
The divergence of one species into two or more descendant species can occur in four major ways:
