Abstract
AbstractWilliam Lonsdale's associations with Sedgwick, Murchison. and Darwin are noted and his inference that the “transition series” was Devonian age, derived in 1837 from a study of fossil corals, is interpreted as an unique contribution to the belief that “species undergo modification”. As the first applied evolutionist, it is argued that he belongs on the list of important early contributors to the theory of evolution.
