Entity: theory of punctuated equilibrium
Triple: [Stephen Jay Gould, notableFor, theory of punctuated equilibrium]

The theory of punctuated equilibrium is an evolutionary model proposing that species remain relatively unchanged for long periods, interrupted by brief, rapid bursts of significant evolutionary change often associated with speciation events.
