Home›Life Sciences›Ecology And Evolutionary BiologyGroupEcology And Evolutionary BiologyThis group collects the Life Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns ecology and evolutionary biology: how species interact with their environment and with each other, and how species change over evolutionary time, from the founders of evolutionary theory to modern ecologists and evolutionary biologists. It is kept apart from Zoology and Botany, whose members work on the classification and biology of animals or plants specifically rather than environmental interaction and evolutionary change in general.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonField EstablishedWell-attested1866 1Browse ByAll Ecology And Evolutionary BiologyEcology And Evolutionary Biology22 entriesEcology And Evolutionary BiologyFilter Results22 entriesDisciplineAllAnthropology (2)Biology (8)Botany (1)Ecology (6)Entomology (1)Zoology (1)Field (legacy)AllAnimal ecology (1)Anthropology (1)Biogeography and natural history (1)Ecology (1)Ecosystem ecology (1)Entomology and ecology (1)Invertebrate zoology and evolutionary theory (1)Natural history and biogeography (1)Paleobotany (1)Paleontology, particularly the evolution of trilobites (1)Zoology and ecology (1)EraAll1647 (1)1744 (1)1769 (1)1823 (1)1832 (1)1834 (1)1854 (1)1871 (1)1887 (1)1892 (1)1900 (1)1913 (1)1922 (1)1929 (1)1936 (2)1938 (1)1940 (1)1943 (1)1946 (1)InstitutionAllAcademie des Sciences (1)Columbia University (1)Ecological Society of America (1)Harvard University (1)National Academy of Sciences (2)Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (1)Royal Society (3)Trinity College, Cambridge (1)University College London (1)University of Jena (1)University of Oxford (1)University of Pittsburgh (1)In GroupAllEcology And Evolutionary Biology (22)NationalityAllAustria (1)France (1)German Empire (1)Germany (1)India (2)Ireland (2)Kenya (1)Kingdom of Prussia (2)United Kingdom (7)United States (6)Weimar Republic (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 22Alexander von HumboldtLife Sciences3 linksAlfred Russel WallaceLife Sciences4 linksArthur TansleyLife Sciences4 linksBasiswar SenLife SciencesCharles EltonLife Sciences3 linksClaudia WascherLife Sciences1 linkDavid LloydLife SciencesDukinfield Henry ScottLife Sciences2 linksE.
