Re: Instant Speciation
There is a wide range of ploidy observed in different species of Xenopus. For example X. tropicalis is diploid, X. laevis tetraploid, X. amieti octoploid, and X. ruwenzoriensis dodecaploid.
Allopolyploidization, via hybridization of species, is considered a source of new species in Xenopus (Evans, et al., 2004)
