Steven Stanley, an affirmed evolutionist, was objective enough to point
out:-
"The known fossil record fails to document a single example of phyletic
evolution accomplishing a major morphologic transition and hence offers no
evidence that a gradualistic model can be valid." Steven M. Stanley,
Macroevolution: Pattern and Process. San Francisco: W. M. Freeman & Co.,
1979,
p. 39.

I can think of two off the top of my head. The genus Pelicaria in the upper
Tertiary rocks of the Wairarapa in New Zealand and the evolution of the
pelagic forminifera Orbulina universa.


I'd point to the work of Philip Gingerich showing the evolution of
whales from prior land-dwelling quadrupeds. It's the sort of
"major morphologic transition" that creationists seem to crave.
I haven't heard any of their comments on this work yet.... I wonder
what excuses they will come up with this time?
