Darwin järkeili, että trooppisella merellä vulkaanista saarta ympäröivä rantariutta (palleriutta) kasvaa ylöspäin saaren vajotessa (upotessa), saaren muuttuessa tyypiltään valliriuttasaareksi (esimerkiksi Bora Bora ja muut Seurasaaret).
He reasoned that a fringing coral reef surrounding a volcanic island in the tropical sea will grow upward as the island subsides (sinks), becoming an "almost atoll", or barrier reef island, as typified by an island such as Aitutaki in the Cook Islands, Bora Bora and others in the Society Islands.
