Rather, evidence for evolution is brought primarily from the fossil record and natural selection from some famous contemporary observations, like the peppered moths Biston betularia which produce offspring that can be light or dark, much like the same family can have redheads, brunettes and blonds.

Melanism is sometimes the result, as in the famous case of the peppered moth, Biston betularia, whose melanistic form, the black peppered moth, evolved during the Industrial Revolution from the original white-with-dark-brown-peppering to the all-black form known, somewhat like the spaghetti dish, as carbonaria in the blackened industrial regions of northern England, where it still forms the total population.

We defended the old Biston example through thick and thin, based mostly on the novel idea that one ought to read the original research and the actual experts to get a sense of what the most likely reality is.

That was the way Dermot managed about getting the lodge at Biston.

All his long and unhappy accumulation of bills and bonds were routed out from their receptacles at Biston, and brought over by Harold to his office, where he sorted them, and made them intelligible, before harassing his friend with the questions he alone could explain.
