- Differences in courtship or other behaviors prevent mating. → Behavioral isolation
- Species can no longer interact because they are separated by physical boundaries. → Geographic isolation
- Species do not interbreed because they breed at different times. → Temporal isolation
- Species cannot physically mate due to genitalia or gametes being incompatible. → Mechanical isolation (if mating structures prevent copulation; if mating occurs but sperm and egg are incompatible, that's gametic isolation)
