Introduction: Zoologist Mayr first used the term "biological species" in the nineteenth century and described it as groups of potentially interbreeding natural populations which are reproductively separated from other similar groupings. This concisely describes what is now referred to as the "Biological Species Concept," a non-phylogenetic species concept because it is a hypothetical interbreeding process without any allusions to ancestry.
