There were too many illustrations in The Atlas of Creation to highlight in this short video, but I did look at a few in detail, and they all showed clear evidence of evolution.
See also "The rapid evolution of the tuatara", Nature 27 March 2008, which shows the tuatare has a very high rate of genetic evolution, despite being thought to have changed very little.
"The Origin and Early Evolution of Turtles" -- Olivier Rieppel and Robert R. Reisz, Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1999 belies The Atlas of Evolution claim about the non-evolution of turtles.
"Evolution of the Freshwater Eels", Aoyama and Tsukamoto, Naturwissenschaften, 1997, shows how eels evolved in Indonesia and diversified worldwide.
