Book Description
When Darwin visited the Gal?pagos Islands in the 1830s, he collected birds that became known as "Darwin's finches." But he did not really conduct in-depth studies, and preliminary efforts to provide specimen localities and identifications were ultimately made by British Museum staff long after his return.
