👉 Paraspecific is a biological concept that refers to the difference in reproductive strategy between species. In other words, it describes how different species have evolved unique ways of reproduction, such as male and female gametophytes or egg-laying systems. Paraspecific organisms are often found in habitats where they can reproduce sexually, but their eggs do not develop into viable offspring due to the lack of fertilization. Paraspecies, on the other hand, are species that share a common ancestor.
