Summary Introduction
Introduction: The species in reproductive isolation impedes the members of both the species from interbreeding to the species that produce fertile offspring. These barriers stop the gene flow between the species, and thus limit the formation of hybrids.

A. Cross-fertilizations between the gray treefrogs, Hyla versicolor and H. chrysoscelis result in a high degree of mortality prior to hatching of hybrid eggs. B.
