Evolution
In the mid-1800s, Charles Darwin famously described variation in the anatomy of finches from the Galapagos Islands. Alfred Russel Wallace noted the similarities and differences between nearby species and those separated by natural boundaries in the Amazon and Indonesia. Independently, they came to the same conclusion: over generations, natural selection of inherited traits could give rise to new species.
