Abstract
Before it is possible to asses the importance of "group selection" in nature, it is necessary to rigorously define this term. A definition of group selection is derived from a critical analysis of conceptions common in the biological literature. This definition is then used to clarify the debate over the mechanism responsible for the evolution of myxomatosis in Australia.
