Darwin's finches and other Galapagos birds: what Charles Darwin saw and didn't see
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the first days of his five-week stay in the Galapagos, Charles Darwin did not realize that there were important differences in the animals coming from the different islands. For this reason, his collections from the first two islands he visited, San Cristóbal (Chatham) and Floreana (Charles), were mixed. In some cases, they were labeled simply as coming from “Galápagos”.
