Evidence for evolution

Overview
This page is for collecting references to scientific evidence that evolution does in fact occur. This is possibly the less "controversial" of the two aspects of evolution by natural selection, with the idea that evolution can result in new species -- or even increasingly complex species -- being somewhat more "controversial". (Note, of course, that the "controversy" exists only outside of the scientific establishment; it is overwhelmingly accepted within scientific circles.)

This page is still in the very early stages and does not at this point represent a strong argument for evolution by natural selection, much less present the strongest possible case.
