Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wallace did not reject evolution or natural selection, but he did have some differences with Darwin's ideas, such as rejecting artificial selection as analogous to natural selection. He also believed in the possibility of non-adaptive traits evolving through the influence of the environment, which was different than Darwin's emphasis on natural selection as the primary driver of evolution. Wallace did not support Lamarckian ideas and did not insist on the fixity of species.
