| Abstract |
Islands, with their effective but leaky isolation from the rest of the world, have helped evolution to produce some remarkable diversity, as Darwin noticed when he visited the Galápagos archipelago. Since then, the theory of island biogeography has enabled ecologists to understand the fate of species in similarly isolated locations on the continents and even under water. |
