Resulta que ya en 1980, en el congreso internacional sobre la
evolución celebrado en Chicago, los paleontólogos admitiero n
que la característica dominante del re g i s t ro fósil es la estasis, es
decir, la continuidad de las especies de forma inalterada a través
de todos los estratos en que se encuentran

They miss the point of the most important insight to emerge from the debate: the prevalence of stasis. Before 1972, paleontologists did try to overemphasize examples of gradual evolution, and they expected organisms to gradually change through geologic time, as they do on neontological time scales. But the overwhelming conclusion of the data collected since 1972 shows that gradual, slow, adaptive change to environments almost never occurs in the fossil record. The prevalence of stasis is still, in my mind, the biggest conundrum that paleontology has posed for evolutionary biology, especially when we can document whole faunas that show absolutely no change despite major changes in their environments (Prothero and Heaton 1996; Prothero 1999; Prothero et al. 2009).
