A distinct species is created when a population of that species is physically isolated form the rest, forming its own distinct gene pool. Natural selection will produce mutations and traits that the rest of the species will not develop. Eventually, so many mutations will build that the two species are incompatible with each other and cannot interbreed.
Viola - a distinct species.
