The correct matching is A. Charles Darwin - Theory of Natural Selection, as he is recognized as the father of this theory and detailed it in his book "On the Origin of Species." Other scientists mentioned contributed significantly to related concepts but were not primarily focused on evolution as Darwin was. Alfred Russel Wallace also contributed to the theory of natural selection independently but Darwin's work remains more widely acknowledged.
