Darwin Was Right: Natural Selection Speeds Up Speciation

In the first experiment of its kind conducted in nature, a University of British Columbia evolutionary biologist has come up with strong evidence for one of Charles Darwin's cornerstone ideas -- adaptation to the environment accelerates the creation of new species.

"The more ways a population can adapt to its unique surroundings, the more likely it will ultimately diverge into a separate species."

So there is overwhelming evidence for speciation (observed, empirical) as well as the mechanisms that drive it (observed, empirical) AND the forms that this set of natural cogs and gears produces (observed, empirical).

Science. It works.
