Alfred Russel Wallace's theory was closest to Charles Darwin's. Both scientists independently developed the concept of natural selection as a mechanism for evolution. Wallace's work in the mid-19th century, particularly his observations of species distribution in the Amazon and the Malay Archipelago, complemented and supported Darwin's ideas, leading to the joint presentation of their findings to the Linnean Society in 1858. This collaboration ultimately helped to establish the foundation of evolutionary Biology.
