The phenotypes affect the environment e.g. via competition for resources. At the same time, prey species are evolving. It looks to me like this model works in a limit where the environment is large and/or in the short term, but breaks down beyond that.
It is an interesting connection. By the way another way you can look at evolution is that the organisms absorb information from the environment.
