This theory assumes the existence of Cladogenesis, but not anagenesis, and it rejects the idea of saltation. It was first said to have been introduced by Ernst Mayr's work, and it is based on allopatric speciation. A special case of phyletic gradualism, much controversy exists over the rate at which evolution occurs in this theory. For 10 points, identify this theory proposed by Niles Eldridge and Stephen Jay Gould, which states that evolution occurs in short, rapid bursts.
