Evolutionary biology: Darwin in the fossils
Andrew P. Hendry1
Abstract
Adaptation by natural selection is thought to drive evolution. Although it has been difficult to confirm this process in the fossil record, evidence has been there all along: we just haven't been looking properly.
Most biologists accept that morphological evolution reflects the darwinian process of natural selection, with evidence coming from numerous studies of contemporary populations1 and from classic interpretations of the fossil record2. Some palaeontologists, however, see a fly in this darwinian ointment.
