Abstract
Up till now we have been looking at the evolution of populations, occupying a fixed uniform area, within which some kind of panmixia was realized. However in real life it is more common, when populations of one and the same species occupy different areas, so that the spatial distribution of the species is represented by a patchy pattern. The areas themselves are not absolutely isolated from each other: there are always some flows of migrants between them, that alter both the sizes of separate populations and their genetic structure. Migration flows connect the originally isolated populations into a single system — the system of linked populations, which evolution can be essentially different from the evolution of an isolated population.
