      Over on the Great Beyond blog, they’re asking a simple question. Can you identify these six prominent evolutionary scientists?

      Darwin not included.

          You’re going to get into trouble for describing them all as evolutionary biologists.

          I did better than Mathis, though. Dose that mean I get to expel them all?

          Three out of six, poor effort on my part. I only know the media hungry ones, and I am a biomedical scientist after all! Good job I’m not a cinema usher then…

          I managed four, but I’d never seen Myers and Wilson and got them the wrong way round. (To be honest, I’d never heard of Myers until recent postings here, but bear in mind I’m from a physics background.)
