There may be little room for evolution in terms of apes evolving into men, but I don't see why races should not become specifically adapted to particular living conditions over a few thousand generations. Maybe Morgoth even "created" them that way. Certainly, the Uruk-Hai did not evolve, but were specifically bred by Sauron.

I'm not sure what
Formendacil is doing on the list(

) , but I believe that
lmp has since removed Goblins as a separate category to take account of this very point. The list is, in any event, not definitive but represents
lmp's opinion with input from those members participating in the debate. And there are some parts of it that remain rather hotly contested ...
