A species of aphid normally breeds and lays its eggs on the new growth of a plant in the month of May. A mutant female grasshopper in the population produces a batch of eggs that carry a new allele that delays sexual development until July. Her offspring feed on the new growth of a different plant that grows later in the season in the same area. Her offspring mate successfully with one another, producing a new generation of July-mating aphids. This new form is a potential candidate for:

Question
A species of aphid normally breeds and lays its eggs on the new growth of a plant in the month of May. A mutant female grasshopper in the population produces a batch of eggs that carry a new allele that delays sexual development until July. Her offspring feed on the new growth of a different plant that grows later in the season in the same area. Her offspring mate successfully with one another, producing a new generation of July-mating aphids. This new form is a potential candidate for: a) sympatric speciation via reinforcement b) sympatric speciation initiated via temporal isolation c) allopatric speciation initiated via ecologically-dependent postzygotic isolation d) allopatric speciation initiated via genetic incompatibilities e) sympatric speciation initiated via pollinator isolation
