He is saying that natural selection (which leads to change in gene frequency) isn’t the whole story. In animal species and evolution he accuses Darwin of occasioning this error. And rightly so. Natural selection isn’t evolution. Lets seeyou might try this metaphor. Mutation is the road, natural selection is the engine and geographic isolation makes up the wheels.
