contemporary evolutionists.
The views of the Japanese biologist Atuhiro Sibatani on
this subject represent a definitive judgment for evolution-
ists: "... the story of industrial melanism must be shelved, at
least for the time being, as a paradigm of neo-Darwinian
evolution ..." 310 According to Sibatani, excessive devotion to

Professor Jerry Coyne says that it should be removed
from the scientific literature, and describes the lessons to be
learned from it:
