- species aren't fixed forever, but change and evolve over time. Some idviduals may develop into new species after some time
- within a species there can be a considerable variation among individuals (dogs and artificial selection)
- many species are extinct and most of these have no fossil record
- some soecies rarely, if ever reproduce sexually
- members of different groups of the same species may be isoltated and so never meet and therefore never interbreed
- groups of organisms that are isolated from one another may be classified as different species
- some species are sterile
