In the early 19th century Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744 â 1829) proposed his theory of the transmutation of species, the first fully formed theory of evolution. In 1858 Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace published a new evolutionary theory, explained in detail in Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859). Unlike Lamarck, Darwin proposed common descent and a branching tree of life, meaning that two very different species could share a common ancestor.
We now know that the inheritance of acquired characteristics is not an actual mechanism of evolution. Darwin saw that Lamarck had some very good ideas that could lead to evolution. Many of Lamarckâs ideas can be seen in Darwinâs Origin of Species. Lamarck was a believer in immutability. Darwin used this idea to further his research on how species were indeed mutable. Darwin also used Lamarckâs inheritance of acquired characteristics as support for his natural selection idea.
