Changes over species over long periods of time is known as evolution.
Because while we can trace the APPARENT path of evolution yielding the species we see around us, in most instances the transition via evolution is implied, not observed. No one was around to observe when most of the evolutionary splits are believed to have occurred so no one documented them to establish as a known fact that that was how the split occurred. In fact there are quite a few instances where scientists have changed their views on which ancestor a particular species branched off from (usually based on further discoveries). Also - theories remain theories until proven via experiments. It's rather difficult to craft an experiment to test natural evolution over any human time scale, although a limited number of experiments have been conducted via forced evolution of some species with very short life cycles.
The reciprocal evolution of flowers and insect mouth parts has occurred over millions of years. The flowers change to make their nectar inaccessible to insects while insects change to be able to attain the nectar.
He's not known for a theory of evolution. Darwin is.
Charles Darwin is known for his work on the theory of evolution.
Changes over species over long periods of time is known as evolution.
He is best known for his book, Origin of Species.
I believe that it is the principle of evolution.
Evolution
Better known as "adaptive radiation", it is independent evolution from a population of a species that has become geographically isolated from its parent population.

Charles Darwin is known for his studies aboard the HMS Beagle. He went all around the world to study different species and formed the theory of evolution.
Charles Darwin is known as the "handy man" in evolution for his work in developing the theory of natural selection, which explains how species evolve over time through the process of adaptation to their environment. His book "On the Origin of Species" is considered a groundbreaking work in the field of evolutionary biology.

Selection is the process throughout evolution that results in a species existing in a current ecosystem at a given time. This is known as natural selection.
