Galápagos archipelago

The Galápagos Islands belong to the Republic of Ecuador and are located in the Pacific Ocean west of Ecuador. They are an archipelago of volcanic islands straddling the Equator. The islands are particularly famous for Charles Darwin’s observations and collections of the native species during his second voyage on the HMS Beagle (1835). Famous island species include the Galápagos tortoise, Galápagos mockingbirds—which Darwin studied in particular—and Galápagos penguins.
