Are Darrians and humans the same species?

I missed almost all of the discussions and flamewars of the last forty years, so I'm betting my question has been "discussed" to conclusion. What is the consensus?
See, reading up on Darrian biology, their hips are different from Terran humaniti, and they have a twelve month gestation cycle. Presuming other non cosmetic differences, are offspring viable?
"Well yeah, since most 3I era Darrians can claim Turkish ancestry." Which isn't what I mean. Do I have to rewrite Darrian biology to make them compatible with humans?

No, they could interbreed with Terrans just fine.
So do modern Darrians have a nine month gestation cycle, a twelve month one, or does it vary based on the ethnicity of the mother and father?

"Mom was going through an experimental phase. My fraternal twin is half Swordworlder, I'm half Zho."

IIRC from published materials, many "Darrian" traits are effectively "recessive" .
