Editing Peripatric speciation (section)

=== Other islands ===
Phylogenetic studies of a species of crab spider (''[[Misumenops rapaensis]]'') in the genus [[Thomisidae]] located on the [[Austral Islands]] have established the, "sequential colonization of [the] lineage down the Austral archipelago toward younger islands". ''M. rapaensis'' has been traditionally thought of as a single species; whereas this particular study found distinct genetic differences corresponding to the sequential age of the islands.<ref>{{Citation |title=Island hopping across the central Pacific: mitochondrial DNA detects sequential colonization of the Austral Islands by crab spiders (Araneae: Thomisidae) |author=Jessica E.
