Coevolution that is specifically defined by the genetic correspondence between species that promotes interaction with each other. (aka, matching gene coevolution)

Coevolution which occurs between two species whose mutual interactions trigger specific adaptations in each other. 

Pairwise Coevolution

Coevolution that occurs when groups of species interact with other groups of species, instigating adaptations that cannot be linked to specific relationships. Demonstrates the interconnectedness between species and the selective pressures they place on one another. (aka, guild coevolution)

Diffuse Coevolution

Gene-For-Gene Coevolution

A specific process of speciation, the evolutionary distinction of a new species, in which the definition of one species is dependent on that of another's.
