Best Answer

The theory of evolution by natural selection was proposed by Charles Robert Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace in 1858.

This is not the currently accepted theory as that was 157 years ago. Google The new synthesis, or the Neo-Darwinian synthesis for an update to the theory of evolution by natural selection.
