Alexandra Basolo looked at a large genus of fish, Xiphoporus, which have evolved elongated swords on their tail fins (Basolo 1990; Basolo 1995).
maculatus, has the "ancestral" condition and lacks a sword.
Females in this species are quite content to mate with their swordless males; at least until Basolo tempted them with sworded males.

 OASIS SUPPLEMENTARY MONOGRAPH #1 B I O L O G I C A L E V O L U T I O N AN OVERVIEW
Specific examples of allopatric speciation can be found in [53].
Here is one such case : A Central American fish, Xiphoporus maculatus, that lives in rivers up the east coast exibits various stages of speciation, from simple diversity of a single population, to subspecies, to full isolated species.
Mayr [86, p.281] points out "Here then we have a series of related, allopatric populations showing every stage from the local genetic race, to the ordinary subspecies, to the almost specifically distinct subspecies ([X.] xiphidium), to the full species (couchianus)." Three phenomena give evidence for geographic speciation.

I just had to add this, as the ultimate speciation reference:
Xiphoporus maculatus [Endler, J.A. (1977) Geographic Variation, Speciation, and Clines.
Princeton University Press, Princeton, N.J.], that lives in rivers up the east coast and exibits various stages of speciation, from simple diversity of a single population, to subspecies, to full isolated species.
