Transmutation of species
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Transmutation of species refers to the altering of one species into another. Transmutation can occur via degeneration (i.e.migration and changes in climate). Modern evolutionary theory accounts for this using evolutionary processes, however before the establishment of modern evolutionary biology, that species changed was recognised by some.
see Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, Erasmus Darwin
