This forms an important part of the <a href="/wiki/Scientific_evidence" title="Scientific evidence">evidence</a> on which evolutionary theory rests, demonstrates that <a href="/wiki/Evolution" title="Evolution">evolution</a> does occur, and illustrates the processes that created Earth's <a href="/wiki/Biodiversity" title="Biodiversity">biodiversity</a>. It supports the <a href="/wiki/Neo-Darwinism" title="Neo-Darwinism">modern evolutionary synthesis</a>—the current <a href="/wiki/Scientific_theory" title="Scientific theory">scientific theory</a> that explains how and why life changes over time. Evolutionary biologists document evidence of common descent, all the way back to the <a href="/wiki/Last_universal_common_ancestor" title="Last universal common ancestor">last universal common ancestor</a>, by developing testable predictions, testing hypotheses, and constructing theories that illustrate and describe its causes. Comparison of the <a href="/wiki/Nucleic_acid_sequence" title="Nucleic acid sequence">DNA genetic sequences</a> of organisms has revealed that organisms that are <a href="/wiki/Phylogenetics" title="Phylogenetics">phylogenetically</a> close have a higher degree of DNA sequence similarity than organisms that are phylogenetically distant. Genetic fragments such as <a href="/wiki/Pseudogene" title="Pseudogene">pseudogenes</a>, regions of <a href="/wiki/DNA" title="DNA">DNA</a> that are <a href="/wiki/Homology_(biology)#Orthology" title="Homology (biology)">orthologous</a> to a gene in a related <a href="/wiki/Organism" title="Organism">organism</a>, but are no longer active and appear to be undergoing a steady process of degeneration from cumulative mutations support common descent alongside the universal biochemical organization and molecular variance patterns found in all organisms. Additional genetic information conclusively supports the relatedness of life and has allowed scientists (since the discovery of DNA) to develop phylogenetic trees: a construction of organisms' evolutionary relatedness. It has also led to the development of <a href="/wiki/Molecular_clock" title="Molecular clock">molecular clock</a> techniques to date taxon divergence times and to calibrate these with the fossil record. <a href="/wiki/Fossils" class="mw-redirect" title="Fossils">Fossils</a> are important for estimating when various lineages developed in <a href="/wiki/Geologic_time" class="mw-redirect" title="Geologic time">geologic time</a>. As fossilization is an uncommon occurrence, usually requiring hard body parts and death near a site where <a href="/wiki/Sediment" title="Sediment">sediments</a> are being deposited, the fossil record only provides sparse and intermittent information about the evolution of life. Evidence of organisms prior to the development of hard body parts such as shells, bones and teeth is especially scarce, but exists in the form of ancient <a href="/wiki/Microfossil" title="Microfossil">microfossils</a>, as well as impressions of various soft-bodied organisms. The comparative study of the <a href="/wiki/Anatomy" title="Anatomy">anatomy</a> of groups of animals shows structural features that are fundamentally similar (homologous), demonstrating phylogenetic and ancestral relationships with other organisms, most especially when compared with fossils of ancient <a href="/wiki/Extinction" title="Extinction">extinct</a> organisms. <a href="/wiki/Vestigiality" title="Vestigiality">Vestigial structures</a> and comparisons in <a href="/wiki/Embryogenesis" class="mw-redirect" title="Embryogenesis">embryonic development</a> are largely a contributing factor in anatomical resemblance in concordance with common descent. Since <a href="/wiki/Metabolism" title="Metabolism">metabolic</a> processes do not leave fossils, research into the evolution of the basic cellular processes is done largely by comparison of existing organisms' <a href="/wiki/Physiology" title="Physiology">physiology</a> and <a href="/wiki/Biochemistry" title="Biochemistry">biochemistry</a>. Many lineages diverged at different stages of development, so it is possible to determine when certain metabolic processes appeared by comparing the traits of the descendants of a common ancestor. Evidence from <a href="/wiki/Animal_coloration" title="Animal coloration">animal coloration</a> was gathered by some of Darwin's contemporaries; <a href="/wiki/Camouflage" title="Camouflage">camouflage</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mimicry" title="Mimicry">mimicry</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Aposematism" title="Aposematism">warning coloration</a> are all readily explained by <a href="/wiki/Natural_selection" title="Natural selection">natural selection</a>. Special cases like the seasonal changes in the plumage of the <a href="/wiki/Rock_ptarmigan" title="Rock ptarmigan">ptarmigan</a>, camouflaging it <a href="/wiki/Snow_camouflage" title="Snow camouflage">against snow</a> in winter and <a href="/wiki/Disruptive_coloration" title="Disruptive coloration">against brown moorland</a> in summer provide compelling evidence that selection is at work. Further evidence comes from the field of <a href="/wiki/Biogeography" title="Biogeography">biogeography</a> because evolution with common descent provides the best and most thorough explanation for a variety of facts concerning the geographical distribution of plants and animals across the world. This is especially obvious in the field of <a href="/wiki/Insular_biogeography" title="Insular biogeography">insular biogeography</a>. Combined with the well-established geological theory of <a href="/wiki/Plate_tectonics" title="Plate tectonics">plate tectonics</a>, common descent provides a way to combine facts about the current distribution of species with evidence from the fossil record to provide a logically consistent explanation of how the distribution of living organisms has changed over time. The development and spread of <a href="/wiki/Antibiotic_resistance" class="mw-redirect" title="Antibiotic resistance">antibiotic resistant</a> bacteria provides evidence that evolution due to natural selection is an ongoing process in the natural world. Natural selection is ubiquitous in all research pertaining to evolution, taking note of the fact that all of the following examples in each section of the article document the process. Alongside this are observed instances of the separation of populations of species into sets of new species (<a href="/wiki/Speciation" title="Speciation">speciation</a>). Speciation has been <a href="/wiki/Laboratory_experiments_of_speciation" title="Laboratory experiments of speciation">observed in the lab</a> and in nature. Multiple forms of such have been described and documented as examples for individual modes of speciation. Furthermore, evidence of common descent extends from direct laboratory experimentation with the <a href="/wiki/Selective_breeding" title="Selective breeding">selective breeding</a> of organisms—historically and currently—and other controlled experiments involving many of the topics in the article. This article summarizes the varying disciplines that provide the evidence for evolution and the common descent of all life on Earth, accompanied by numerous and specialized examples, indicating a compelling <a href="/wiki/Consilience" title="Consilience">consilience of evidence</a>. <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r886046785">.mw-parser-output .toclimit-2 .toclevel-1 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-3 .toclevel-2 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-4 .toclevel-3 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-5 .toclevel-4 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-6 .toclevel-5 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-7 .toclevel-6 ul{display:none}</style><div class="toclimit-3"><meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Evidence_from_comparative_physiology_and_biochemistry">Evidence from comparative physiology and biochemistry</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Evidence from comparative physiology and biochemistry">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Archaeogenetics" title="Archaeogenetics">Archaeogenetics</a>, <a href="/wiki/Common_descent" title="Common descent">Common descent</a>, <a href="/wiki/Last_universal_ancestor" class="mw-redirect" title="Last universal ancestor">Last universal ancestor</a>, <a href="/wiki/Most_recent_common_ancestor" title="Most recent common ancestor">Most recent common ancestor</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Genetic_code#Origin" title="Genetic code">Genetic code § Origin</a></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Genetics">Genetics</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Genetics">edit</a>]</div> One of the strongest evidences for common descent comes from gene sequences. <a href="/wiki/Sequence_alignment" title="Sequence alignment">Comparative sequence analysis</a> examines the relationship between the DNA sequences of different species,<a href="#cite_note-mount-1">[1]</a> producing several lines of evidence that confirm Darwin's original hypothesis of common descent.

If each differing amino acid is assumed the result of one base pair substitution, it can be calculated how long ago the two species diverged by multiplying the number of base pair substitutions by the estimated time it takes for a substituted base pair of the cytochrome c gene to be successfully passed on. For example, if the average time it takes for a base pair of the cytochrome c gene to mutate is N years, the number of amino acids making up the cytochrome c protein in monkeys differ by one from that of humans, this leads to the conclusion that the two species diverged N years ago. The primary structure of cytochrome c consists of a chain of about 100 <a href="/wiki/Amino_acid" title="Amino acid">amino acids</a>.

One study compiled 64 examples of vestigial structures found in the literature across a wide range of disciplines within the 21st century.<a href="#cite_note-73">[73]</a> The following non-exhaustive list summarizes Senter et al. alongside various other examples: <ul><li>The presence of remnant <a href="/wiki/Mitochondria" class="mw-redirect" title="Mitochondria">mitochondria</a> (<a href="/wiki/Mitosomes" class="mw-redirect" title="Mitosomes">mitosomes</a>) that have lost the ability to synthesize <a href="/wiki/Adenosine_triphosphate" title="Adenosine triphosphate">ATP</a> in <a href="/wiki/Entamoeba_histolytica" title="Entamoeba histolytica">Entamoeba histolytica</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Trachipleistophora_hominis&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Trachipleistophora hominis (page does not exist)">Trachipleistophora hominis</a>, <a href="/wiki/Cryptosporidium_parvum" title="Cryptosporidium parvum">Cryptosporidium parvum</a>, <a href="/wiki/Blastocystis_hominis" class="mw-redirect" title="Blastocystis hominis">Blastocystis hominis</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Giardia_intestinalis" class="mw-redirect" title="Giardia intestinalis">Giardia intestinalis</a>.<a href="#cite_note-74">[74]</a></li> <li>Remnant <a href="/wiki/Chloroplast" title="Chloroplast">chloroplast</a> organelles (<a href="/wiki/Leucoplasts" class="mw-redirect" title="Leucoplasts">leucoplasts</a>) in non-photosynthetic algae species (<a href="/wiki/Plasmodium_falciparum" title="Plasmodium falciparum">Plasmodium falciparum</a>, <a href="/wiki/Toxoplasma_gondii" title="Toxoplasma gondii">Toxoplasma gondii</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Aspasia_longa&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Aspasia longa (page does not exist)">Aspasia longa</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Anthophysa_vegetans&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Anthophysa vegetans (page does not exist)">Anthophysa vegetans</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Ciliophrys_infusionum&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Ciliophrys infusionum (page does not exist)">Ciliophrys infusionum</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Pteridomonas_danica&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Pteridomonas danica (page does not exist)">Pteridomonas danica</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Paraphysomonas&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Paraphysomonas (page does not exist)">Paraphysomonas</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Spumella&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Spumella (page does not exist)">Spumella</a> and <a href="/wiki/Epifagus_americana" class="mw-redirect" title="Epifagus americana">Epifagus americana</a>.<a href="#cite_note-75">[75]</a></li> <li>Missing <a href="/wiki/Stamens" class="mw-redirect" title="Stamens">stamens</a> (unvascularized <a href="/wiki/Staminodes" class="mw-redirect" title="Staminodes">staminodes</a>) on <a href="/wiki/Gilliesia" title="Gilliesia">Gilliesia</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gethyum" class="mw-redirect" title="Gethyum">Gethyum</a> flowers.<a href="#cite_note-76">[76]</a></li> <li>Non-functioning <a href="/wiki/Androecium" class="mw-redirect" title="Androecium">androecium</a> in female flowers and non-functioning <a href="/wiki/Gynoecium" title="Gynoecium">gynoecium</a> in male flowers of the cactus species <a href="/wiki/Consolea" title="Consolea">Consolea</a> spinosissima.<a href="#cite_note-77">[77]</a></li> <li>Remnant stamens on female flowers of <a href="/wiki/Fragaria_virginiana" title="Fragaria virginiana">Fragaria virginiana</a>;<a href="#cite_note-78">[78]</a> all species in the genus <a href="/wiki/Schiedea" title="Schiedea">Schiedea</a>;<a href="#cite_note-79">[79]</a> and on <a href="/wiki/Penstemon_centranthifolius" title="Penstemon centranthifolius">Penstemon centranthifolius</a>, P. rostriflorus, P. ellipticus, and P. palmeri.<a href="#cite_note-80">[80]</a></li> <li>Vestigial <a href="/wiki/Anther" class="mw-redirect" title="Anther">anthers</a> on <a href="/wiki/Nemophila_menziesii" title="Nemophila menziesii">Nemophila menziesii</a>.<a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a></li></ul> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Mystice_pelvis_(whale).png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Mystice_pelvis_%28whale%29.png/350px-Mystice_pelvis_%28whale%29.png" decoding="async" width="350" height="92" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Mystice_pelvis_%28whale%29.png/525px-Mystice_pelvis_%28whale%29.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/Mystice_pelvis_%28whale%29.png 2x" data-file-width="545" data-file-height="143" /></a><figcaption>Figure 2b: Skeleton of a <a href="/wiki/Baleen_whale" title="Baleen whale">baleen whale</a> with the hind limb and pelvic bone structure circled in red.

(Fig. 2c) Evolution has caused enlargement and modification of these structures in some species, while it has caused the reduction and loss of them in other species. The modifications enable the insects to exploit a variety of food materials. Insect mouthparts and antennae are considered homologues of insect legs. Parallel developments are seen in some <a href="/wiki/Arachnid" title="Arachnid">arachnids</a>: The anterior pair of legs may be modified as analogues of antennae, particularly in <a href="/wiki/Uropygid" class="mw-redirect" title="Uropygid">whip scorpions</a>, which walk on six legs.

Throughout the tetrapods, the fundamental structures of pentadactyl limbs are the same, indicating that they originated from a common ancestor.

Due to the lengths of their necks, the recurrent laryngeal nerve may be up to 4 m (13 ft) long, despite its optimal route being a distance of just several inches. The indirect route of this nerve is the result of evolution of mammals from fish, which had no neck and had a relatively short nerve that innervated one gill slit and passed near the gill arch.

They are extremely important for understanding the <a href="/wiki/Timeline_of_evolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Timeline of evolution">evolutionary history of life</a> on Earth, as they provide direct evidence of evolution and detailed information on the ancestry of organisms. <a href="/wiki/Paleontology" title="Paleontology">Paleontology</a> is the study of past life based on fossil records and their relations to different geologic time periods. For fossilization to take place, the traces and remains of organisms must be quickly buried so that <a href="/wiki/Weathering" title="Weathering">weathering</a> and decomposition do not occur. Skeletal structures or other hard parts of the organisms are the most commonly occurring form of fossilized remains. There are also some trace "fossils" showing <a href="/wiki/Molding_(process)" title="Molding (process)">moulds</a>, cast or imprints of some previous organisms. As an animal dies, the organic materials gradually decay, such that the <a href="/wiki/Bone" title="Bone">bones</a> become porous. If the animal is subsequently buried in <a href="/wiki/Mud" title="Mud">mud</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mineral" title="Mineral">mineral</a> salts infiltrate into the bones and gradually fill up the pores.

Such a sequence can be determined because fossils are mainly found in <a href="/wiki/Sedimentary_rock" title="Sedimentary rock">sedimentary rock</a>. Sedimentary rock is formed by layers of <a href="/wiki/Silt" title="Silt">silt</a> or mud on top of each other; thus, the resulting rock contains a series of horizontal layers, or <a href="/wiki/Stratum" title="Stratum">strata</a>. Each layer contains fossils typical for a specific <a href="/wiki/Period_(geology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Period (geology)">time period</a> when they formed. The lowest strata contain the oldest rock and the earliest fossils, while the highest strata contain the youngest rock and more recent fossils. A succession of animals and plants can also be seen from fossil discoveries. By studying the number and complexity of different fossils at different <a href="/wiki/Stratigraphy" title="Stratigraphy">stratigraphic</a> levels, it has been shown that older fossil-bearing rocks contain fewer types of fossilized organisms, and they all have a simpler structure, whereas younger rocks contain a greater variety of fossils, often with increasingly complex structures.<a href="#cite_note-121">[121]</a> For many years, geologists could only roughly estimate the ages of various strata and the fossils found. They did so, for instance, by estimating the time for the formation of sedimentary rock layer by layer. Today, by measuring the proportions of <a href="/wiki/Radioactive_decay" title="Radioactive decay">radioactive</a> and stable <a href="/wiki/Chemical_element" title="Chemical element">elements</a> in a given rock, the ages of fossils can be more precisely dated by scientists. This technique is known as <a href="/wiki/Radiometric_dating" title="Radiometric dating">radiometric dating</a>. Throughout the fossil record, many species that appear at an early stratigraphic level disappear at a later level. This is interpreted in evolutionary terms as indicating the times when species originated and became extinct. Geographical regions and climatic conditions have varied throughout <a href="/wiki/History_of_Earth" title="History of Earth">Earth's history</a>.

When <a href="/wiki/Transitional_fossil" title="Transitional fossil">transitional fossils</a> are found that show intermediate forms in what had previously been a gap in knowledge, they are often popularly referred to as "missing links".

This evolutionary sequence starts with a small animal called <a href="/wiki/Hyracotherium" title="Hyracotherium">Hyracotherium</a> (commonly referred to as Eohippus), which lived in North America about 54 million years ago then spread across to Europe and Asia. Fossil remains of Hyracotherium show it to have differed from the modern horse in three important respects: it was a small animal (the size of a fox), lightly built and adapted for running; the limbs were short and slender, and the feet elongated so that the digits were almost vertical, with four digits in the <a href="/wiki/Forelimb" title="Forelimb">forelimbs</a> and three digits in the <a href="/wiki/Hindlimb" title="Hindlimb">hindlimbs</a>; and the <a href="/wiki/Incisor" title="Incisor">incisors</a> were small, the <a href="/wiki/Molar_(tooth)" title="Molar (tooth)">molars</a> having low crowns with rounded <a href="/wiki/Cusp_(dentistry)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cusp (dentistry)">cusps</a> covered in <a href="/wiki/Tooth_enamel" title="Tooth enamel">enamel</a>.<a href="#cite_note-130">[130]</a> The probable course of development of horses from Hyracotherium to Equus (the modern horse) involved at least 12 <a href="/wiki/Genus" title="Genus">genera</a> and several hundred <a href="/wiki/Species" title="Species">species</a>. The major trends seen in the development of the horse to changing environmental conditions may be summarized as follows: <ul><li>Increase in size (from 0.4 m to 1.5 m — from 15 in to 60 in);</li> <li>Lengthening of limbs and feet;</li> <li>Reduction of lateral digits;</li> <li>Increase in length and thickness of the third digit;</li> <li>Increase in width of <a href="/wiki/Incisor" title="Incisor">incisors</a>;</li> <li>Replacement of <a href="/wiki/Premolar" title="Premolar">premolars</a> by <a href="/wiki/Molar_(tooth)" title="Molar (tooth)">molars</a>; and</li> <li>Increases in tooth length, crown height of molars.</li></ul> Fossilized plants found in different strata show that the marshy, wooded country in which Hyracotherium lived became gradually drier. Survival now depended on the head being in an elevated position for gaining a good view of the surrounding countryside, and on a high turn of speed for escape from <a href="/wiki/Predation" title="Predation">predators</a>, hence the increase in size and the replacement of the splayed-out foot by the hoofed foot. The drier, harder ground would make the original splayed-out foot unnecessary for support. The changes in the teeth can be explained by assuming that the diet changed from soft vegetation to <a href="/wiki/Graminivory" class="mw-redirect" title="Graminivory">grass</a>. A dominant genus from each geological period has been selected (see figure 3e) to show the slow alteration of the horse lineage from its ancestral to its modern form.<a href="#cite_note-Leidy-131">[131]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Transition_from_fish_to_amphibians">Transition from fish to amphibians</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=32" title="Edit section: Transition from fish to amphibians">edit</a>]</div> Prior to 2004, paleontologists had found fossils of amphibians with necks, ears, and four legs, in rock no older than 365 million years old. In rocks more than 385 million years old they could only find fish, without these amphibian characteristics. Evolutionary theory predicted that since amphibians evolved from fish, an intermediate form should be found in rock dated between 365 and 385 million years ago. Such an intermediate form should have many fish-like characteristics, conserved from 385 million years ago or more, but also have many amphibian characteristics as well.

For purposes of <a href="/wiki/Biogeography" title="Biogeography">biogeography</a>, islands are divided into two classes. Continental islands are islands like <a href="/wiki/Great_Britain" title="Great Britain">Great Britain</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Japan" title="Japan">Japan</a> that have at one time or another been part of a continent. Oceanic islands, like the <a href="/wiki/Hawaiian_islands" class="mw-redirect" title="Hawaiian islands">Hawaiian islands</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Gal%C3%A1pagos_Islands" title="Galápagos Islands">Galápagos Islands</a> and <a href="/wiki/St._Helena" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Helena">St. Helena</a>, on the other hand are islands that have formed in the ocean and never been part of any continent. Oceanic islands have distributions of native plants and animals that are unbalanced in ways that make them distinct from the <a href="/wiki/Biota_(ecology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Biota (ecology)">biotas</a> found on continents or continental islands. Oceanic islands do not have native terrestrial mammals (they do sometimes have bats and seals), amphibians, or fresh water fish. In some cases they have terrestrial reptiles (such as the iguanas and giant tortoises of the Galápagos Islands) but often (such as in Hawaii) they do not. This is despite the fact that when species such as rats, goats, pigs, cats, mice, and <a href="/wiki/Cane_toad" title="Cane toad">cane toads</a>, are introduced to such islands by humans they often thrive. Starting with <a href="/wiki/Charles_Darwin" title="Charles Darwin">Charles Darwin</a>, many scientists have conducted experiments and made observations that have shown that the types of animals and plants found, and not found, on such islands are consistent with the theory that these islands were colonized accidentally by plants and animals that were able to reach them. Such accidental colonization could occur by air, such as plant seeds carried by migratory birds, or bats and insects being blown out over the sea by the wind, or by floating from a continent or other island by sea (for example, by some kinds of plant seeds like coconuts that can survive immersion in salt water), and reptiles that can survive for extended periods on rafts of vegetation carried to sea by storms.<a href="#cite_note-Coyne99-110-140">[140]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Endemism">Endemism</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=37" title="Edit section: Endemism">edit</a>]</div> Many of the species found on remote islands are <a href="/wiki/Endemic" class="mw-redirect" title="Endemic">endemic</a> to a particular island or group of islands, meaning they are found nowhere else on earth.

Each pond contained gravel to exactly match that of the natural ponds. After capturing a random sample of guppies from ponds in Trinidad, he raised and mixed them to create similar genetically diverse populations and measured each fish (spot length, spot height, spot area, relative spot length, relative spot height, total patch area, and standard body lengths). For the experiment he added <a href="/wiki/Crenicichla" title="Crenicichla">Crenicichla</a> alta (P. reticulata's main predator) in four of the ponds, <a href="/wiki/Rivulus" title="Rivulus">Rivulus</a> hartii (a non-predator fish) in four of the ponds, and left the remaining two ponds empty with only the guppies. After 10 generations, comparisons were made between each pond's guppy populations and measurements were taken again. Endler found that the populations had evolved dramatically different color patterns in the control and non-predator pools and drab color patterns in the predator pool.

Instances of speciation have been observed in both nature and the laboratory. A.-B Florin and A. Ödeen note that, "strong laboratory evidence for allopatric speciation is lacking..."; however, contrary to laboratory studies (focused specifically on models of allopatric speciation), "speciation most definitely occurs; [and] the vast amount of evidence from nature makes it unreasonable to argue otherwise".<a href="#cite_note-214">[214]</a> Coyne and Orr compiled a list of 19 laboratory experiments on Drosophila presenting examples of allopatric speciation by divergent selection concluding that, "reproductive isolation in allopatry can evolve as a byproduct of divergent selection".<a href="#cite_note-215">[215]</a> Research documenting speciation is abundant. Biologists have documented numerous examples of speciation in nature—with evolution having produced far more species than any observer would consider necessary. For example, there are well over 350,000 described species of beetles.<a href="#cite_note-216">[216]</a> Examples of speciation come from the observations of island biogeography and the process of adaptive radiation, both explained previously. Evidence of common descent can also be found through paleontological studies of speciation within geologic strata. The examples described below represent different modes of speciation and provide strong evidence for common descent. Not all speciation research directly observes divergence from "start-to-finish". This is by virtue of research delimitation and definition ambiguity, and occasionally leads research towards historical reconstructions. In light of this, examples abound, and the following are by no means exhaustive—comprising only a small fraction of the instances observed. Once again, take note of the established fact that, "...natural selection is a ubiquitous part of speciation...",<a href="#cite_note-JMSobel2009-166">[166]</a> and is the primary driver of speciation,<a href="#cite_note-Speciation-167">[167]</a> so; hereinafter, examples of speciation will often interdepend and correspond with selection. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Fossils">Fossils</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=64" title="Edit section: Fossils">edit</a>]</div> Limitations exist within the fossil record when considering the concept of what constitutes a species.

In an extensive study of the paleobiogeography of G. truncatulinoides, researchers found evidence that suggested the formation of a new species (via the sympatric speciation framework). Cores taken of the sediment containing the three species G. crassaformis, G. tosaensis, and G. truncatulinoides found that before 2.7 Ma, only G. crassaformis and G. tosaensis existed. A speciation event occurred at that time, whereby intermediate forms existed for quite some time. Eventually G. tosaensis disappears from the record (suggesting extinction) but exists as an intermediate between the extant G. crassaformis and G. truncatulinoides.

"Raphanofortii" is the allopolyploid hybrid between <a href="/wiki/Brassica_tournefortii" title="Brassica tournefortii">Brassica tournefortii</a> and <a href="/wiki/Raphanus_caudatus" title="Raphanus caudatus">Raphanus caudatus</a>. The Raphanobrassica is a fascinating plant, because (in spite of its hybrid nature), it is not sterile. This has led some botanists to propose that the accidental hybridization of a flower by pollen of another species in nature could be a mechanism of speciation common in higher plants. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Senecio_(groundsel)">Senecio (groundsel)</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Evidence_of_common_descent&action=edit&section=79" title="Edit section: Senecio (groundsel)">edit</a>]</div> The Welsh groundsel is an allopolyploid, a plant that contains sets of chromosomes originating from two different species.

These new species are usually referred to as "the Ownbey hybrids" after the botanist who first described them. The T. mirus population grows mainly by reproduction of its own members, but additional episodes of hybridization continue to add to the T. mirus population.<a href="#cite_note-269">[269]</a> T. dubius and T. pratensis mated in Europe but were never able to hybridize. A study published in March 2011 found that when these two plants were introduced to North America in the 1920s, they mated and doubled the number of chromosomes in there hybrid Tragopogon miscellus allowing for a "reset" of its genes, which in turn, allows for greater genetic variation.
