Macroevolution 
changes in a population over very long periods of time. 
 
 
 
Speciation 
the splitting of one species into two or more new species 
 
 
 
Biological Species Concept 
offers testable way to define a species that does not depend on appearance: 
The members of a species interbreed and have a shared gene pool, & each species is reproductively isolated from every other species. 
Gene flow occurs between the populations of a species, but not between pops of diff species.
