Synopsis
Excerpt from Geographical Distribution of British Birds
Geographical distribution is a branch of the science of Zoology which has very greatly increased in interest since the theory of Evolution has been generally accepted. It was Darwin's Opinion, which recent research has invariably confirmed, that without isolation the differentiation of species is impossible, and of all possible modes of Isolation, Geographical Isolation is the most important.
The number of species which have been included in the list of British Birds at various times considerably exceeds four hundred, but of these many have been admitted on most untrustworthy evidence.
