Abstract: | It is shown that equations describing the dynamics of Darwinian systems (DS) far from the bifurcation points may be expressed
in Hamiltonian form. The cases of DS with constant organization and DS with a constant flux through the system are considered.
The configurational part of phase space is formed by variables containing information on the structure of the system. Momentum
variables may be regarded as specific rates of multiplication. The evolution of DS with constant organization in this phase
space is expressed as uniform rectilinear motion. In the case of DS with a constant flux, the motion occurs in some effective
constant and uniform field. The meaning of the elements of the Hamiltonian structure is described in terms of theoretical
biology.
