The Galapagos endemic plants Scalesia aspera, Scalesia crockeri, and Scalesia pedunculata (Asteraceae) grow in distinct parts of Santa Cruz Island. Between them lie morphologically intermediate populations. The putative hybridization of the three species was investigated by means of morphological (leaf characters) and molecular (amplified fragment length polymorphism) measures. The results suggest that the intermediate populations are interspecific hybrids. Artificial hybrids were also made by crossing S. crockeri and S. pedunculata manually. We thus document that reproductive barriers are incomplete and that gene flow occurs between the three different species of Scalesia.
