Outline of evolution links the articles related to evolution, the change in phenotypic traits of biological organisms over time due to natural selection, mutation, gene flow, and genetic drift. Evolutionary biology is the subfield of biology concerned with study of evolutionary processes that produced the biodiversity of life on Earth.

Fundamentals

Introduction to evolution, non-technical introduction
Applications of evolution, practical applications in fields such as ecology, artificial intelligence, medicine, and computer science
Common descent, how different lineages of organisms share a most recent common ancestor

* Evidence of common descent

Evolution as fact and theory, basis for scientific acceptance as theory (well-substantiated explanation) based on fact (empirical data and objective verifiable observation)
Evolutionary history of life, outline of major events during evolution of life on Earth

Timeline of evolutionary history of life, more concise outline

Macroevolution, change above level of species, including speciation, anagenesis, and extinction
Microevolution, change within species or populations, due to mutation, selection (natural and artificial), gene flow, and genetic drift
