Darwin's evidence for evolution. In his Origin, Darwin presents his evidence supporting descent with modification (branching evolution) in several chapters: A. In Chapters 1 and 2, he considers how patterns of variation in domesticated and wild fauna and flora support descent with modification. B. In Chapters 10-12, he shows how the patterns of species distributions in time and space support branching evolution from common ancestral lineages.
It was Darwin's genius both to show how all this evidence favored the evolution of species from a common ancestor and to offer a plausible mechanism by which life might evolve. Lamarck and others had promoted evolutionary theories, but in order to explain just how life changed, they depended on speculation.
