"Personal genomics services now offer what once was science fiction: the ability to sequence and analyze an individual's entire genetic code--promising, in some cases, facts about that individual's ancestry that may have remained otherwise lost. Such services draw on and contrib…

Although the species is one of the fundamental units of biological classification, there is remarkably little consensus among biologists about what defines a species, even within distinct sub-disciplines. The literature of paleobiology, in particular, is littered with qualifiers…
