Its small size is a result of insular dwarfism, a form
of allopatric speciation.
But the climate change still had a deep impact on anthropoid evolution, because habitat fragmentation and an increased level
of allopatric speciation took place as a result.

Allopatric speciation is another argument in the quiver
of intelligent design.
«Punctuated equilibrium originated as a logical extension
of Ernst Mayr's concept
of genetic revolutions by
allopatric and especially peripatric
speciation as applied to the fossil record.»
Because neither
allopatric nor sympatric
speciation require the extinction
of the parent species.
To this end, Gould later commented that «Most
of our paleontological colleagues missed this insight because they had not studied evolutionary theory and either did not know about
allopatric speciation or had not considered its translation to geological time.
show me anywhere that
allopatric speciation (which is the ONLY mechanism that I am aware
of put forth to explain PE) is a proven and accepted means by which such rapid change: A. takes place at all B. DOES NT take place during the long periods
of stasis.
There are three main ideas concerning the emergence
of new species (Modes
of Speciation), each based on the degree to which populations undergoing this process are geographically isolated from one another (allopatric speciation, sympatric speciation, parapatric sp

If most evolution happens in these rare instances
of called
allopatric speciation, then evidence
of gradual evolution should be rare.
Punctuated equilibrium logically extends from Ernst Mayr's concept
of genetic revolutions by
allopatric and especially peripatric
speciation as observed in the fossil record.
