Technically, there could be thousands of answers, as two animals can have the exact same hierarchy except for the species. There can not necessarily be two "closest related species".

There are, however, instances where animals of the same species have made different adaptations. Such as in one type of hummingbird living in South America, the female has a longer, more curved beak than that of the male because they feed on different flowers.
