Though Darwin proposed natural selection as the primary evolutionary mechanism, he accepted other auxiliary mechanisms too. The most important of these was the transmission of acquired characteristics (those acquired by use-disuse) first proposed by Lamarck in the early 1800s..
It was Darwin's genius both to show how all this evidence favored the evolution of species from a common ancestor and to offer a plausible mechanism by which life might evolve. Lamarck and others had promoted evolutionary theories, but in order to explain just how life changed, they depended on speculation.
