Adaptive radiation has been an important model system to study evolution of taxonomic and ecological diversity of organisms. While adaptive radiation has many definitions (Givnish, 1997; Olson & Arroyo-Santos, 2009), perhaps the most frequently used one is Schluter's (2000) definition:“adaptive radiation is the evolution of ecological and phenotypic diversity within a rapidly multiplying lineage.” Adaptive radiation is thought to occur when a lineage exploits an ecological opportunity (ie, availability of many unoccupied ecological niches) by occupying new ecological niches (Losos, 2010; Schluter, 2000; Simpson, 1953). Ecological natural selection plays key roles in this process by driving ecological speciation and ecological character displacement. Scrutiny of many instances of adaptive radiation in the last decades has, on the one hand, strengthened the support on this view, termed the ecological theory of adaptive radiation (Schluter, 2000). On the other hand, deepened understandings of mechanisms and biogeographic histories of instances of evolutionary radiation have led to a growing recognition that (a) adaptive radiation may involve some discernible subtypes and (b) there are several other types of evolutionary radiation that are similar to, but not the same as, adaptive radiation. However, separation between different types of evolutionary radiations is often vague. Perhaps as a reflection of this, there is no widely accepted classification of evolutionary radiations. Even adaptive radiation, the most widely studied type of evolutionary radiation, does not have a consensus definition and this has been a major concern in the field (Olson & Arroyo-Santos, 2009). Addressing this problem, Matsubayashi and Yamaguchi (2022) in this issue proposed a new definition of adaptive radiation. Different from most of previously proposed definitions and criteria of adaptive radiation that are based on ecological, phenotypic and phylogenetic patterns in the focal clade, the definition of Matsubayashi and Yamaguchi (2022) is based on the mode of speciation in evolutionary radiation. In the present paper, I discuss four topics from the viewpoint that defining adaptive radiation and other types of evolutionary radiations is equivalent to classifying evolutionary radiations. First, I discuss why we need to classify evolutionary radiations and what are required for classification of evolutionary radiations. From the perspective of functionality of classification in promoting scientific research, I propose that classification of evolutionary radiation should ideally be associated with causal mechanisms behind evolutionary radiations. Second, I provide a brief overview of the previously recognized diversity of evolutionary radiations. Third, I discuss about current issues in classification of evolutionary radiations. I argue that ecological, phenotypic and phylogenetic patterns, on which most of previously proposed methods to classify evolutionary radiations are based, have only a limited capacity to distinguish evolutionary radiations driven by different mechanisms. Finally, possible ways to develop a mechanism-based classification of evolutionary
