  text: 'Speciation research—the scientific field focused on understanding the origin
    and diversity of species—has a long and complex history. While relevant to one
    another, the specific goals and activities of speciation researchers are highly
    diverse, and scattered across a collection of different perspectives. Thus, our
    understanding of speciation will benefit from efforts to bridge scientific findings
    and the diverse people who do the work. In this paper, we outline two ways of
    integrating speciation research: (i) scientific integration, through the bringing
    together of ideas, data, and approaches; and (ii) social integration, by creating
    ways for a diversity of researchers to participate in the scientific process.
    We then discuss five challenges to integration: (i) the multidisciplinary nature
    of speciation research, (ii) the complex language of speciation; (iii) a bias
    toward certain study systems; (iv) the challenges of working across scales; and
    (v) inconsistent measures and reporting standards. We provide practical steps
    that individuals and groups can take to help overcome these challenges, and argue
    that integration is a team effort in which we all have a role to play.'
