<h3>
Who is Alfred Russell Wallace?</h3>
The theory of evolution by natural selection was independently developed by Alfred Russel Wallace OM FRS, a British naturalist, explorer, geographer, anthropologist, biologist, and illustrator who lived from 8 January 1823 to 7 November 1913. His paper on the topic was published in 1858[3] together with other of Charles Darwin's publications, which eventually inspired Darwin to write On the Origin of Species.
Wallace conducted significant field research, beginning in the Amazon River basin. The Indonesian archipelago is divided into two distinct parts: a western portion where the animals are primarily of Asian origin, and an eastern portion where the fauna reflects Australasia. He would then conduct fieldwork in the Malay Archipelago, where he discovered the faunal divide now known as the Wallace Line.
