A province of Ecuador, the Galápagos Islands are an archipelago of volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean distributed on either side of the equator. Situated about 1,000 km off the coast from the South American continent, the archipelago consists of 19 islands known for their large number of indigenous species which were also studied by Charles Darwin during the 2nd voyage of HMS Beagle. His observations and surveys contributed to the constitution of Darwin's theory of evolution by means of natural selection.
