Question

Development of new species as a result of the geographic separation of population called ?​

Answer 1

That would be allopatric speciation.

In allopatric speciation, a part of the population becomes geographically isolated from the main popula­tion. The population becomes entirely separated and finally constitutes a new species. Thus geographic isolation brings about allopatric speciation.

An important example of this type of speciation is formation of Darwin’s finches that formed separate species in the Galapagos Islands.

Answer 2

Speciation, the formation of new and distinct species in the course of evolution.

Speciation is the process by which new species form. It occurs when groups in a species become reproductively isolated and diverge.
