- Modern synthesis (20th century), a historical movement in evolutionary biology between about 1918 and 1970
- Neo-Darwinism, the state-of-the-art in evolutionary biology, as seen at any chosen time in history from the 1890s to the present day
- Extended evolutionary synthesis, an intended revision to the synthesis of the late 20th and early 21st centuries
