| 635.399 | a multitude of doubtful forms be | called species or sub-species or varieties |
| 641.63 | how is it that varieties, which I have | called incipient species, become ultimately |
| 641.312 | of species, which constitute what are | called distinct genera, and which differ from |
| 641.1061 | but a small number can survive. I have | called this principle, by which each slight |

| called by me the ovigerous frena, which serve |
| 1586.1051 | in beauty to charm the females, can be | called useful only in rather a forced sense |
| 1663.897 | of the natural selection of what may be | called accidental variations of instincts |
| 1689.1620 | Domestic instincts, as they may be | called, are certainly far less fixed or |
| 1695.748 | in a straight line to his master when | called.
Domestic instincts are sometimes |
| 1755.973 | the slaves, tend, and milk as it may be | called, their aphides; and thus both collect |
| 1857.272 | or the domestic cattle as they may be | called, which our European ants guard or |

| 2564.705 | allied forms, or, as they have been | called by some authors, representative species |
| 2713.39 | I must now say a few words on what are | called accidental means, but which more |
| 2713.97 | means, but which more properly might be | called occasional means of distribution. I |
| 2749.139 | These means of transport are sometimes | called accidental, but this is not strictly |

| 325.78 | we see it in the father and child, we | cannot tell whether it may not be due to the |

| 429.1323 | further than to mere variability. We | cannot suppose that all the breeds were |

[page] 129 CHAP. IV. SUMMARY |
| 1119.953 | but a long catalogue of facts which | cannot be here given would be necessary to |
| 1125.277 | safely conclude that such influences | cannot have produced the many striking and |
| 1133.56 | is of the slightest use to a being, we | cannot tell how much of it to attribute to the |
| 1141.580 | anomaly in nature than a bird that | cannot fly; yet there are several in this |
| 1141.1139 | and is exposed to danger from which it | cannot escape by flight, but by kicking it can |
| 1147.913 | be lost early in life, and therefore | cannot be much used by these insects.
In some |
| 1149.281 | are so far deficient in wings that they | cannot fly; and that of the twenty-nine |
| 1173.644 | arctic or even from a temperate region | cannot endure a tropical climate, or |
| 1173.725 | So again, many succulent plants | cannot endure a damp climate. But the degree |
| 1183.478 | our domestic breeds. The rat and mouse | cannot be considered as domestic animals, but |
| 1189.833 | varieties are of recent origin, they | cannot owe their constitutional differences to |
| 1189.1117 | it was—as proving that acclimatisation | cannot be effected! The case, also, of the |
| 1189.1560 | the same precautions, the experiment | cannot be said to have been even tried. Nor |
| 1245.578 | facts which I have collected, and which | cannot possibly be here introduced. I can only |
| 1251.171 | certainly to hold good in this class. I | cannot make out that it applies to plants, and |
| 1257.941 | natural selection either has not or | cannot come into full play, and thus the |
| 1450.529 | distance from tree to tree. We | cannot doubt that each structure is of use to |
| 1590.67 | are of special use to these birds; we | cannot believe that the same bones in the arm |
| 1592.18 | laws of growth.
Natural selection | cannot possibly produce any modification in |
| 1596.356 | on natural history to this effect, I | cannot find even one which seems to me of any |
| 1604.634 | used against many attacking animals, | cannot be withdrawn, owing to the backward |
| 1675.1400 | in some few cases, certain instincts | cannot be considered as absolutely perfect |
| 1689.493 | case of the several breeds of dogs: it | cannot be doubted that young pointers (I have |
| 1689.809 | a flock of sheep, by shepherd-dogs. I | cannot see that these actions, performed |
| 1689.1166 | her eggs on the leaf of the cabbage,—I | cannot see that these actions differ |
| 1697.653 | as I hear from Mr. Brent, which | cannot fly eighteen inches high without going |
| 1755.363 | food for itself or its young, and | cannot even feed itself: it is absolutely |
| 1803.391 | a great error to suppose that the bees | cannot build up a rough wall of wax in the |
| 1833.126 | natural selection,—cases, in which we | cannot see how an instinct could possibly have |
| 1833.470 | remote in the scale of nature, that we | cannot account

The subject well |
| 1914.915 | injurious to the fertility of a plant | cannot be doubted; for Gärtner gives in his |
| 1924.159 | or variety increases fertility, that I | cannot doubt the correctness of this almost |
| 1958.223 | extremely general result; but that it | cannot, under our present state of knowledge |
| 2012.403 | the common gooseberry, for instance, | cannot be grafted on the currant, whereas the |
| 2026.248 | facts, any more than why certain trees | cannot be grafted on others. Lastly, an embryo |
| 2040.39 | It must, however, be confessed that we | cannot understand, excepting on vague |
| 2048.618 | are generally sterile in some degree. I | cannot persuade myself that this parallelism |
| 2213.869 | denuded the Weald. This, of course, | cannot be done; but we may, in order to form |
| 2221.302 | number of generations, which the mind | cannot grasp, must have succeeded each other |
| 2261.37 | From the foregoing considerations it | cannot be doubted that the geological record |
| 2351.640 | certainly be highly remarkable; but I | cannot see that it would be an insuperable |
| 2359.491 | earliest known species. For instance, I | cannot doubt that all the Silurian trilobites |

| 343.616 | in the same manner as, only in most | cases in a lesser degree than, do closely |
| 389.429 | are in some degree applicable in other | cases, I will here briefly give them. If the |
| 395.81 | weight, and applicable in several other | cases, is, that the above-specified breeds |
| 403.885 | of generations. These two distinct | cases are often confounded in treatises on |
| 429.1445 | as we now see them; indeed, in several | cases, we know that this has not been their |
| 441.215 | indispensable even than in ordinary | cases. If selection consisted merely in |
| 443.257 | have proofs that this is not so in some | cases, in which exact records have been kept |
| 461.494 | might serve for comparison. In some | cases, however, unchanged or but little |
| 479.164 | known fact, that in a vast number of | cases we cannot recognise, and therefore do |
| 491.476 | a fantail, is, I have no doubt, in most | cases, utterly incorrect. The man who first |
| 515.745 | rendered infinitely complex. In some | cases, I do not doubt that the intercrossing |
| 515.1553 | frequent sterility of hybrids; but the | cases of plants not propagated by seed are of |
| 530.97 | from far northwards, would not in some | cases be inherited for at least some few |
| 532.1049 | would be surprised at the number of the | cases of variability, even in important parts |
| 542.799 | and the other as the variety. But | cases of great difficulty, which I will not |
| 542.1117 | remove the difficulty. In very many | cases, however, one form is ranked as a |
| 544.208 | to follow. We must, however, in many | cases, decide by a majority of naturalists |
| 554.12 | is vainly to beat the air.
Many of the | cases of strongly-marked varieties or |
| 560.29 | Close investigation, in most | cases, will bring naturalists to an agreement |
| 566.424 | observations, he will meet with more | cases of difficulty; for he will encounter a |
| 574.195 | and higher stage may be, in some | cases, due merely to the long-continued |
| 604.236 | and well-marked varieties; and in those | cases in which intermediate links have not |

On the other hand, in many | cases, a large stock of individuals of the |
| 701.1061 | confines of their range. For in such | cases, we may believe, that a plant could |
| 705.65 | come into play in some of these | cases; but on this intricate subject I will |
| 707.5 | subject I will not here enlarge.
Many | cases are on record showing how complex and |
| 725.313 | the existence of the species. In some | cases it can be shown that widely-different |
| 737.827 | will supplant another, and so in other | cases. We can dimly see why the competition |
| 804.1512 | the structure of the larva; but in all | cases natural selection will ensure that |
| 816.478 | will leave most progeny. But in many | cases, victory will depend not on general |
| 828.500 | to the females. We see analogous | cases under nature, for instance, the tuft of |
| 864.1172 | asked, is there for supposing in these | cases that two individuals ever concur in |
| 878.651 | do they naturally cross. In many other | cases, far from there being any aids for self |
| 878.1482 | bees, seeds freely. In very many other | cases, though there be no special mechanical |
| 882.468 | self-fertilisation, should in so many | cases be mutually useless to each other! How |
| 900.334 | that there are, on this view, many | cases of difficulty, some of which I am |
| 970.319 | is shown by the hopeless doubts in many | cases how to rank them—yet certainly differ |

| 1709.411 | such inherited mental changes; in other | cases compulsory habit has done nothing, and |
| 1709.551 | and unconsciously; but in most | cases, probably, habit and selection have |

| 1837.195 | I will not here enter on these several | cases, but will confine myself to one special |
| 1883.310 | in any useful direction. In some | cases habit or use and disuse have probably |
| 1883.482 | great degree my theory; but none of the | cases of difficulty, to the best of my |
| 1906.660 | sterility, which is common to the two | cases, has to be considered. The distinction |
| 1906.768 | over, owing to the sterility in both | cases being looked on as a special endowment |

| 1914.145 | the entire fertility of Kölreuter's ten | cases. But in these and in many other cases |
| 1914.183 | cases. But in these and in many other | cases, Gärtner is obliged carefully to count |
| 1914.982 | gives in his table about a score of | cases of plants which he castrated, and |

The fertility, both of first |
| 1980.430 | is by no means strict. A multitude of | cases could be given of very closely allied |
| 1986.333 | of making reciprocal crosses. Such | cases are highly important, for they prove |
| 1986.572 | organisation. On the other hand, these | cases clearly show that the capacity for |
| 1986.1199 | failed. Several other equally striking | cases could be given. Thuret has observed the |

| 2006.1644 | have been grafted together, in other | cases species of the same genus will not take |
| 2014.251 | organs perfect; yet these two distinct | cases run to a certain extent parallel |
| 2020.409 | systems. These differences, in both | cases, follow to a certain extent, as might |
| 2022.172 | first crosses and of hybrids. These two | cases are fundamentally different, for, as |
| 2032.153 | are many points of similarity. In both | cases the sterility is independent of general |

| 2126.44 | on several circumstances; in some | cases largely on the early death of the |
| 2155.491 | from each other. Hence in all such | cases, we should be unable to recognise the |

| 2177.287 | cases from actual measurement, in a few | cases from estimate, of each formation in |
| 2207.339 | of 12,000 feet; yet in these | cases there is nothing on the surface to show |
| 2227.587 | the water bespeaks its purity. The many | cases on record of a formation conformably |
| 2265.144 | its commencement and at its close. Some | cases are on record of the same species |
| 2285.504 | by the thinner formation. Many | cases could be given of the lower beds of a |
| 2285.764 | occurred in its accumulation. In other | cases we have the plainest evidence in great |
| 2321.417 | such lengthy periods; and in these | cases the inhabitants of the archipelago |
| 2335.76 | formations,—longer perhaps in some | cases than the time required for the |
| 2428.228 | have been fatal to my views. But such | cases are certainly exceptional; the general |
| 2438.851 | in numbers of the species. In some | cases, however, the extermination of whole |
| 2446.261 | and finally extinction. We see in many | cases in the more recent tertiary formations |
| 2472.309 | same species are met with; for in some | cases not one species is identically the same |
| 2508.15 | and immigration.
I suspect that | cases of this nature have occurred in Europe |
| 2542.385 | no right to expect, except in very rare | cases, to fill up wide intervals in the |
| 2556.49 | for an instant, in this and other such | cases, that the record of the first |
| 2584.1298 | it is not well displayed by them. Other | cases could be added, as the relation between |
| 2671.599 | is possible. But in many other | cases, in which we have reason to believe |
| 2677.205 | Undoubtedly there are very many | cases of extreme difficulty, in understanding |
| 2677.674 | is universally admitted, that in most | cases the area inhabited by a species is |
| 2677.1136 | accordingly, we find no inexplicable | cases of the same mammal inhabiting distant |
| 2677.1247 | will feel any difficulty in such | cases as Great Britain having been formerly |
| 2683.311 | is the most probable. Undoubtedly many | cases occur, in which we cannot explain how |
| 2687.303 | tedious to discuss all the exceptional | cases of the same species, now living at |
| 2687.455 | could be offered of many such | cases. But after some preliminary remarks, I |
| 2693.589 | to the inhabitants of the continent. | Cases of this nature are common, and are, as |
| 2699.40 | a single parent. But in the majority of | cases, namely, with all organisms which |
| 2755.238 | exist, is one of the most striking | cases known of the same species living at |
| 2803.6 | hemisphere of equatorial ocean.
These | cases of relationship, without identity, of |

| 2882.401 | We can here consider only a few | cases. In regard to

what they are elsewhere. Such | cases are generally accounted for by the |
| 2954.861 | in forming a judgment in some | cases owing to the probable naturalisation of |

| 2966.293 | A. Gould has given several interesting | cases in regard to the land-shells of the |
| 2990.318 | by deep arms of the sea, in most | cases wider than the British Channel, and |
| 2994.981 | belonging in a large proportion of | cases, as shown by Alph. de Candolle, to |
| 3012.195 | at a remote epoch; so that in such | cases there will have been ample time for |
| 3044.1216 | than the higher; but there are in both | cases marked exceptions to the rule. On my |
| 3044.1539 | migrated into distant quarters, in both | cases the forms within each class have been |
| 3044.1768 | each other in time and space; in both | cases the laws of variation have been the |
| 3081.1368 | family, is very unequal, and in some | cases seems to be entirely lost." Again in |
| 3147.448 | under higher groups, though in these | cases the modification has been greater in |
| 3179.104 | distinct group, this affinity in most | cases is general and not special: thus |
| 3233.202 | leaves; but it would in these | cases probably be more correct, as Professor |
| 3247.457 | animals is sometimes much obscured; and | cases could be given of the larvæ of two |
| 3247.628 | than do their adult parents. In most | cases, however, the larvæ, though active |
| 3251.308 | is higher than the caterpillar. In some | cases, however, the mature animal is |
| 3255.1152 | stage of development; but in some few | cases, as in that of Aphis, if we look to the |
| 3267.532 | supports this view. But in other | cases it is quite possible that each |
| 3269.678 | the case; and I could give a good many | cases of variations (taking the word in the |

In certain | cases the successive steps of variation might |

| 778.785 | do I believe that any great physical | change, as of climate, or any unusual degree |
| 810.223 | in consequence profits by the selected | change. What natural selection cannot do, is |

| 2046.223 | benefit is derived from almost any | change in the habits of life. Again, both with |
| 2094.829 | system being eminently sensitive to any | change in the conditions of life, being thus |
| 2157.354 | had undergone a vast amount of | change; and the principle of competition |
| 2165.203 | for so great an amount of organic | change, all changes having been effected very |
| 2267.121 | compared with the period requisite to | change one species into another. I am aware |
| 2273.892 | of level, on the inordinately great | change of climate, on the prodigious lapse of |
| 2281.343 | has been much interrupted, as a | change in the currents of the sea and a supply |
| 2293.390 | view we do find the kind of evidence of | change which on my theory we ought to find |
| 2408.589 | The productions of the land seem to | change at a quicker rate than those of the sea |
| 2408.795 | considered high in the scale of nature, | change more quickly than those that are low |
| 2408.904 | to this rule. The amount of organic | change, as Pictet has remarked, does not |
| 2408.1246 | will be found to have undergone some | change. When a species has once disappeared |
| 2412.134 | all the inhabitants of a country to | change abruptly, or simultaneously, or to an |
| 2412.1007 | others; or, if changing, that it should | change less. We see the same fact in |
| 2412.1347 | the apparently quicker rate of | change in terrestrial and in more highly |
| 2416.188 | become modified; for those which do not | change will become extinct.
In members of the |
| 2418.51 | of the same class the average amount of | change, during long and equal periods of time |
| 2418.422 | consequently the amount of organic | change exhibited by the fossils embedded in |

| 2474.185 | of the land and of fresh water | change at distant points in the same parallel |
| 2522.248 | those groups which have undergone much | change in the course of geological ages; and |
| 2610.316 | of different classes do not necessarily | change together, or at the same rate, or in |
| 2703.155 | abstract of the more important facts. | Change of climate must have had a powerful |
| 2869.239 | felt one of his great cycles of | change; and that on this view, combined with |
| 2886.740 | occurred during floods, without any | change of level. We have evidence in the loess |
| 2910.803 | reason to believe that such low beings | change or become modified less quickly than |
| 3016.236 | within each great class, generally | change at a slower rate than the higher forms |
| 3026.213 | and remember that some forms of life | change most slowly, enormous periods of time |
| 3044.1165 | lower members of each class generally | change less than the higher; but there are in |

Any | change in function, which can be effected by |
| 3404.207 | climate and other conditions of life | change insensibly in going from a district |
| 3404.498 | that only a few species are undergoing | change at any one period; and all changes are |
| 3412.241 | sufficient for any amount of organic | change; for the lapse of time has been so |
| 3482.140 | which have been inherited without | change for an enormous period. It is |

| 532.1297 | at finding variability in important | characters, and that there are not many men who |

| 1269.675 | would advance, namely, that specific | characters are more variable than generic, because |
| 1273.154 | of the above statement, that specific | characters are more variable than generic; but I |
| 1275.787 | of some other genus, are called generic | characters; and these characters in common I |
| 1275.809 | called generic characters; and these | characters in common I attribute to inheritance |
| 1279.210 | manner: and as these so-called generic | characters have been inherited from a remote |
| 1279.614 | of the same genus, are called specific | characters; and as these specific characters have |
| 1279.648 | characters; and as these specific | characters have varied and come to differ within |
| 1281.158 | on details, that secondary sexual | characters are very variable; I think it also will |
| 1281.313 | more widely in their secondary sexual | characters, than in other parts of their |
| 1281.483 | birds, in which secondary sexual | characters are strongly displayed, with the amount |
| 1281.680 | variability of secondary sexual | characters is not manifest; but we can see why |
| 1281.733 | not manifest; but we can see why these | characters should not have been rendered as |

| 1297.433 | on the head and feathers on the feet,— | characters not possessed by the aboriginal rock |
| 1305.43 | doubt it is a very surprising fact that | characters should reappear after having been lost |

| 1315.140 | we could not have told, whether these | characters in our domestic breeds were reversions |
| 1315.857 | varying offspring of a species assuming | characters (either from reversion or from |
| 1317.491 | one in varying has assumed some of the | characters of the other, so as to produce the |
| 1345.1213 | for the reappearance of very ancient | characters, is-that there is a tendency in the |
| 1357.1287 | Specific characters-that is, the | characters which have come to differ since the |
| 1357.1433 | parent-are more variable than generic | characters, or those which have long been |
| 1361.192 | or incipient species. Secondary sexual | characters are highly variable, and such |
| 1361.233 | are highly variable, and such | characters differ much in the species of the same |
| 1361.1631 | may occasionally revert to some of the | characters of their ancient progenitors. Although |
| 1560.226 | I have given instances of most trifling | characters, such as the down on fruit and the |
| 1568.62 | may sometimes attribute importance to | characters which are really of very little |
| 1568.321 | influence on the organisation; that | characters reappear from the law of reversion |
| 1568.550 | have largely modified the external | characters of animals having a will, to give one |
| 1586.770 | changes of no direct use. So again | characters which formerly were useful, or which |
| 1655.36 | But I could show that none of these | characters of instinct are universal. A little |
| 1839.1230 | unhesitatingly assumed that all its | characters had been slowly acquired through |
| 2080.232 | from man selecting only external | characters in the production of the most distinct |
| 2104.159 | to the existence of secondary sexual | characters; but more especially owing to |
| 2110.405 | resemblances seem chiefly confined to | characters almost monstrous in their nature, and |
| 2110.593 | fingers and toes; and do not relate to | characters which have been slowly acquired by |
| 2359.966 | they belong, for they do not present | characters in any degree intermediate between them |
| 2420.486 | almost certainly inherit different | characters from their distinct progenitors. For |

| 2520.711 | present day from each other by a dozen | characters, the ancient members of the same two |
| 2520.820 | by a somewhat lesser number of | characters, so that the two groups, though |
| 2522.110 | more it tends to connect by some of its | characters groups now widely separated from each |
| 2540.132 | to differ from each other by a dozen | characters, in this case the genera, at the early |
| 2540.236 | VI., would differ by a lesser number of | characters; for at this early stage of descent |
| 2542.765 | less from each other in some of their | characters than do the existing members of the |

| 3044.763 | are often characterised by trifling | characters in common, as of sculpture or colour |
| 3061.355 | there is a constant tendency in their | characters to diverge. This conclusion was |
| 3069.431 | that is, by one sentence to give the | characters common, for instance, to all mammals |
| 3069.1132 | a more or less concealed form, that the | characters do not make the genus, but that the |
| 3069.1195 | the genus, but that the genus gives the | characters, seem to imply that something more is |
| 3075.826 | as merely "adaptive or analogical | characters;" but to the consideration of these |
| 3081.1598 | valvular æstivation. Any one of these | characters singly is frequently of more than |
| 3089.37 | Numerous instances could be given of | characters derived from parts which must be |
| 3095.48 | for classification, of trifling | characters, mainly depends on their being |
| 3095.120 | being correlated with several other | characters of more or less importance. The value |
| 3095.195 | The value indeed of an aggregate of | characters is very evident in natural history |
| 3095.325 | may depart from its allies in several | characters, both of high physiological importance |
| 3095.695 | The importance of an aggregate of | characters, even when none are important, alone |
| 3095.795 | think, that saying of Linnæus, that the | characters do not give the genus, but the genus |
| 3095.853 | give the genus, but the genus gives the | characters; for this saying seems founded on an |
| 3095.1135 | remarked, "the greater number of the | characters proper to the species, to the genus, to |
| 3101.60 | about the physiological value of the | characters which they use in defining a group, or |
| 3101.527 | botanist, Aug. St. Hilaire. If certain | characters are always found correlated with others |
| 3101.1002 | vital organs, are found to offer | characters of quite subordinate value.
We can see |
| 3103.15 | subordinate value.
We can see why | characters derived from the embryo should be of |
| 3103.493 | Edwards and Agassiz, that embryonic | characters are the most important of any in the |
| 3103.729 | two main divisions have been founded on | characters derived from the embryo,—on the number |
| 3107.144 | on embryology, we shall see why such | characters are so valuable, on the view of |
| 3109.123 | be easier than to define a number of | characters common to all birds; but in the case of |
| 3117.205 | on descent with modification; that the | characters which naturalists consider as showing |
| 3127.41 | inherited to a certain extent their | characters. This natural arrangement is shown, as |
| 3139.529 | differ in colour and other important | characters from negroes.
With species in a state |
| 3141.243 | sometimes differ in the most important | characters, is known to every naturalist: scarcely |
| 3147.824 | of any kind. Therefore we choose those | characters which, as far as we can judge, are the |
| 3151.535 | points of structure, but when several | characters, let them be ever so trifling, occur |
| 3151.714 | on the theory of descent, that these | characters have been inherited from a common |
| 3151.816 | know that such correlated or aggregated | characters have especial value in classification |
| 3153.248 | done, as long as a sufficient number of | characters, let them be ever so unimportant |
| 3153.971 | I think, clearly see why embryological | characters are of such high classificatory |
| 3159.885 | very distinct animals. On my view of | characters being of real importance for |
| 3159.1495 | apparent paradox, that the very same | characters are analogical when one class or order |
| 3163.279 | of the body and fin-like limbs serve as | characters exhibiting true affinity between the |
| 3163.401 | for these cetaceans agree in so many | characters, great and small, that we cannot doubt |
| 3173.247 | ancient forms of life often present | characters in some slight degree intermediate |

and therefore these same | characters would be more likely still to be |

| 1231.348 | which I was much struck when examining | cirripedes, and of which many other instances |
| 1231.676 | for the carapace in all other | cirripedes consists of the three highly-important |
| 1249.366 | shown in the case of hermaphrodite | cirripedes; and I may here add, that I |
| 1249.561 | rule almost invariably holds good with | cirripedes. I shall, in my future work, give a |

| 1532.182 | give one more instance. Pedunculated | cirripedes have two minute folds of skin,
[page |
| 1536.153 | they are hatched within the sack. These | cirripedes have no branchiæ, the whole surface of |
| 1536.298 | respiration. The Balanidæ or sessile | cirripedes, on the other hand, have no ovigerous |
| 1536.979 | adhesive glands. If all pedunculated | cirripedes had become extinct, and they have |
| 1536.1079 | far more extinction than have sessile | cirripedes, who would ever have imagined that the |
| 2227.1241 | Chthamalinæ (a sub-family of sessile | cirripedes) coat the rocks all over the world in |
| 2345.122 | me. In a memoir on Fossil Sessile | Cirripedes, I have stated that, from the number of |
| 2345.633 | I inferred that had sessile | cirripedes existed during the secondary periods |
| 2349.51 | we now positively know that sessile | cirripedes existed during the secondary period |
| 2349.109 | during the secondary period; and these | cirripedes might have been the progenitors of our |
| 3141.379 | the males and hermaphrodites of certain | cirripedes, when adult, and yet no one dreams of |

| 1104.45 | of all the beings of the same | class have sometimes been represented by a |
| 1245.1024 | is a most abnormal structure in the | class mammalia; but the rule would not here |
| 1251.162 | to me certainly to hold good in this | class. I cannot make out that it applies to |
| 1500.676 | nothing on this head. In this great | class we should probably have to descend far |
| 1506.697 | by any member of the great Articulate | class.
He who will go thus far, if he find |
| 1516.489 | common to all the members of a large | class, for in this latter case the organ must |
| 1516.629 | since which all the many members of the | class have been developed; and in order to |
| 1546.238 | appears in several members of the same | class, especially if in members having very |
| 1638.246 | we see in organic beings of the same | class, and which is quite independent of |
| 1649.593 | qualities of animals within the same | class.
I will not attempt any definition of |
| 2042.103 | extends to an allied yet very different | class of facts. It is an old and almost |
| 2163.201 | to the common ancestor of each great | class. So that the number of intermediate and |
| 2339.273 | published not many years ago, the great | class of mammals was always spoken of as |
| 2418.23 | become extinct.
In members of the same | class the average amount of change, during |
| 2458.920 | belonging to the same or to a distinct | class, which yield their places to other |
| 2570.839 | instance, not the highest in their own | class, may have beaten the highest molluscs |
| 2624.439 | of more recent animals of the same | class, the fact will be intelligible. The |
| 2799.129 | supposed), but we find in every great | class many forms, which some naturalists rank |
| 2924.837 | an island nearly all the species of one | class are peculiar, those of another class |
| 2924.874 | class are peculiar, those of another | class, or of another section of the same |
| 2924.915 | or of another section of the same | class, are peculiar; and this difference |
| 3016.219 | low in the scale within each great | class, generally change at a slower rate than |
| 3038.274 | group of beings, even within the same | class, should have all its species endemic |
| 3044.998 | whilst others belonging to a different | class, or to a different order, or even only |
| 3044.1149 | and space the lower members of each | class generally change less than the higher |
| 3044.1567 | in both cases the forms within each | class have been connected by the same bond of |
| 3055.382 | MORPHOLOGY, between members of the same | class, between parts of the same individual |
| 3063.647 | genera on this line form together one | class, for all have descended from one |
| 3067.224 | and orders, all united into one | class. Thus, the grand fact in natural |
| 3069.69 | species, genera, and families in each | class, on what is called the Natural System |
| 3095.1205 | to the genus, to the family, to the | class, disappear, and thus laugh at our |
| 3109.512 | belonging to this, and to no other | class of the Articulata.
Geographical |
| 3119.99 | arrangement of the groups within each | class, in due subordination and relation to |
| 3135.724 | we are cautioned, for instance, not to | class two varieties of the pine-apple |
| 3153.563 | and we put them all into the same | class. As we find organs of high |
| 3159.1530 | same characters are analogical when one | class or order is compared with another, but |
| 3163.9 | CLASSIFICATION. CHAP. XIII.
the same | class or order are compared one with another |
| 3165.403 | a parallelism of this nature in any one | class, by arbitrarily raising or sinking the |
| 3185.1106 | members of the same great natural | class.
Extinction, as we have seen in the |
| 3187.154 | between the several groups in each | class. We may thus account even for the |
| 3191.1802 | in collecting all the forms in any | class which have lived throughout all time |
| 3197.1575 | and how the several members of each | class are connected together by the most |
| 3201.125 | between the members of any one | class; but when we have a distinct object in |
| 3203.54 | have seen that the members of the same | class, independently of their habits of life |
| 3203.307 | organs in the different species of the | class are homologous. The whole subject is |
| 3209.106 | of pattern in members of the same | class, by utility or by the doctrine of final |
| 3211.1131 | of the limbs throughout the whole | class. So with the mouths of insects, we have |
| 3217.138 | the same part in different members of a | class, but of the different parts or organs |
| 3231.13 | principle of inheritance.
In the great | class of molluscs, though we can homologise |
| 3231.365 | even in the lowest members of the | class, we do not find nearly so much |
| 3239.253 | of distinct animals within the same | class are often strikingly similar: a better |
| 3241.86 | of widely different animals of the same | class resemble each other, often have no |
| 3255.183 | different animals within the same | class, that we might be led to look at these |
| 3257.364 | of different species within the same | class, generally, but not universally |
| 3295.188 | and with a few members of the great | class of insects, as with Aphis. With respect |
| 3301.1253 | their larvæ as belonging to the great | class of crustaceans. As the embryonic state |
| 3307.532 | of the common parent-form of each great | class of animals.
Rudimentary, atrophied, or |
| 3323.792 | the same part in different members of a | class, nothing is more common, or more |
| 3357.131 | applied, of the different species of a | class; or to the homologous parts constructed |
| 3359.437 | resemblance in different species of a | class of the homologous parts or organs |
| 3365.49 | have all descended, each within its own | class or group, from common parents, and have |
| 3392.666 | parallel, but directly opposite, | class of facts; namely, that the vigour and |
| 3484.303 | endowing different animals of the same | class with their several instincts. I have |
| 3502.303 | of the inhabitants within each great | class are plainly related; for they will |
| 3512.427 | of the species and genera within each | class are so complex and circuitous. We see |
| 3518.643 | alike in the early progenitor of each | class. On the principle of successive |
| 3550.37 | embraces all the members of the same | class. I believe that animals have descended |
| 3566.1258 | of the prototypes of each great | class.
When we can feel assured that all the |
| 5870.132 | on Osteology and Palæontology of the | class Mammalia, delivered at the Metropolitan |
13 | | | classed | |
| 435.1546 | and the sheep are each time marked and | classed, so that the very best may ultimately |
| 1378.41 | difficulties and objections may be | classed under the following heads:— Firstly |
| 2480.1112 | America would hereafter be liable to be | classed with somewhat older European beds |
| 2514.398 | long ago remarked, all fossils can be | classed either in still existing groups, or |
| 2618.427 | blending two groups previously | classed as distinct into one; but more commonly |
| 3057.124 | descending degrees, so that they can be | classed in groups under groups. This |
| 3139.439 | from the Negro, I think he would be | classed under the Negro group, however much he |
| 3145.576 | of the kangaroo family would have to be | classed under the bear genus. The whole case is |
| 3153.151 | from its allies, and yet be safely | classed with them. This may be safely done, and |
| 3159.545 | by external appearances, actually | classed an homopterous insect as a moth. We see |
| 3301.41 | ever lived on this earth have to be | classed together, and as all have been |

It may be worth while to illustrate |

| Climate plays an important part in determining |

| 689.724 | on the same kind of food. Even when | climate, for instance extreme

| 693.1333 | due to the directly injurious action of | climate, than we do in proceeding southwards or |

That | climate acts in main part indirectly by |
| 695.175 | which can perfectly well endure our | climate, but which never become naturalised |

| 1173.669 | region cannot endure a tropical | climate, or conversely. So again, many |

26 | | | comes | |
| 505.322 | individuals being kept; and hence this | comes to be of the highest importance to |
| 566.828 | other naturalists. When, moreover, he | comes to study allied forms brought from |
| 651.82 | seeds, of which on an average only one | comes to maturity, may be more truly said to |
| 699.493 | disproportionably favoured: and here | comes in a sort of struggle between the |
| 741.241 | all other organic beings, with which it | comes into competition for food or residence |
| 884.560 | flowers on the same plant. How, then, | comes it that such a vast number of the |
| 940.29 | mination. Hence, perhaps, it | comes that the flora of Madeira, according to |
| 1018.959 | derived from divergence of character | comes in; for this will generally lead to the |
| 1205.670 | dog, though here probably homology | comes into play? With respect to this latter |
| 1267.401 | in nearly the same state; and thus it | comes to be no more variable than any other |
| 1392.307 | other less-favoured forms with which it | comes into competition. Thus extinction and |
| 1412.1005 | which it is destroyed, or with which it | comes into competition; and as these species |

| 2110.1070 | body of facts with respect to animals, | comes to the conclusion, that the laws of |
| 2412.836 | with which the varying species | comes into competition. Hence it is by no |
| 2452.191 | some advantage over those with which it | comes into competition; and the consequent |
| 2458.390 | from one species, that is a new genus, | comes to supplant an old genus, belonging to |
| 2540.414 | as they subsequently diverged. Thus it | comes that ancient and extinct genera are |
| 2578.16 | to the adult.
Thus the embryo | comes to be left as a sort of picture |
| 2663.878 | Thus the high importance of barriers | comes into play by checking migration; as |
| 3247.206 | or later in life; but whenever it | comes on, the adaptation of the larva to its |

My work is now nearly |

| 2550.517 | of some preceding forms, and for the | coming in of quite new forms by immigration |
| 2608.209 | but often falsely apparent, sudden | coming in of whole groups of species. He may |
| 2681.1061 | a strange anomaly it would be, if, when | coming one step lower in the series, to the |

| 976.1426 | both from each other and from their | common parent.
But how, it may be asked, can |
| 1018.322 | with restricted ranges. Let (A) be a | common, widely-diffused, and varying species |
| 1024.289 | those advantages which made their | common parent (A) more numerous than most of |
| 1026.465 | other, and more considerably from their | common parent (A). We may continue the process |
| 1026.821 | descendants, proceeding from the | common parent (A), will generally go on |
| 1034.39 | As all the modified descendants from a | common and widely-diffused species, belonging |
| 1040.269 | from each other and from their | common parent. If we suppose the amount of |
| 1056.361 | and (I), were also supposed to be very | common and widely diffused species, so that |
| 1080.425 | that its species have inherited from a | common ancestor some advantage in common |
| 1080.459 | a common ancestor some advantage in | common. Hence, the struggle for the production |
| 1098.28 | genera.
We have seen that it is the | common, the widely-diffused, and widely |
| 1119.57 | spoken as if the variations—so | common and multiform in organic beings under |
| 1167.134 | nearly similar climate; so that on the | common view of the blind animals having been |

| 1179.239 | extended transportation, I think the | common and extraordinary capacity in our |
| 1183.923 | flexibility of constitution, which is | common to most animals. On this view, the |
| 1183.1325 | but merely as examples of a very | common flexibility of constitution, brought |
| 1199.132 | monstrous plants; and nothing is more | common than the union of homologous parts in |

| 1279.328 | species first branched off from their | common progenitor, and subsequently have not |
| 1279.751 | the branching off of the species from a | common progenitor, it is probable that they |
| 1287.516 | in the tarsi is a character generally | common to very large groups of beetles, but in |
| 1287.817 | of the highest importance, because | common to large groups; but in certain genera |
| 1287.1227 | whatever part of the structure of the | common progenitor, or of its early descendants |
| 1293.194 | or those which the species possess in | common;—that the frequent extreme variability |
| 1293.467 | it may be developed, if it be | common to a whole group of species;—that the |
| 1293.898 | the same group having descended from a | common progenitor, from whom they have |
| 1293.955 | from whom they have inherited much in | common,—to parts which have recently and |
| 1297.867 | of the pigeon having inherited from a | common parent the same constitution and |
| 1297.1208 | produced by cultivation from a | common parent: if this be not so, the case |
| 1297.1373 | these a third may be added, namely, the | common turnip. According to the ordinary view |
| 1305.427 | the proportion of blood, to use a | common expression, of any one ancestor, is |
| 1309.800 | inherited: for instance, in the | common snapdragon (Antirrhinum) a rudiment of |
| 1311.90 | on my theory, to have descended from a | common parent, it might be expected that they |
| 1311.857 | never know the exact character of the | common ancestor of a group, we could not |
| 1331.366 | double and sometimes treble, is | common; the side of the face, moreover, is |
| 1339.108 | horse-genus. Rollin asserts, that the | common mule from the ass and horse is |
| 1349.184 | very differently constructed, the | common parent of our domestic horse, whether |
| 1357.1388 | of the same genus branched off from a | common parent-are more variable than generic |
| 1361.1468 | nearly the same constitution from a | common parent and exposed to similar |
| 1400.832 | allied species have descended from a | common parent; and during the process of |
| 1412.74 | as Alph. De Candolle has observed, a | common alpine species disappears. The same |
| 1424.302 | in lesser numbers. Hence, the more | common forms, in the race for life, will tend |
| 1424.378 | will tend to beat and supplant the less | common forms, for these will be more slowly |
| 1424.508 | which, as I believe, accounts for the | common species in each country, as shown in |
| 1432.384 | representative species and their | common parent, must formerly have existed in |
| 1478.973 | of its close blood-relationship to our | common species; yet it is a woodpecker which |
| 1516.452 | Or again, if we look to an organ | common to all the members of a large class |
| 1544.51 | structure closely resembles that of | common muscle; and as it has lately been shown |
| 1546.360 | its presence to inheritance from a | common ancestor; and its absence in some of |
| 1550.258 | owe but little of their structure in | common to inheritance from the same ancestor |
| 1590.731 | bat, which have been inherited from a | common progenitor, were formerly of more |
| 1825.1183 | as to intersect a little; for a wall in | common even to two adjoining cells, would save |
| 1837.43 | their similarity by inheritance from a | common parent, and must therefore believe that |
| 1885.94 | in regard to instincts; as by that | common case of closely allied, but certainly |
| 1906.642 | the cause of the sterility, which is | common to the two cases, has to be considered |
| 1908.90 | or believed to have descended from | common parents, when intercrossed, and |
| 1914.1477 | getting fertile seed; as he found the | common red and blue pimpernels (Anagallis |
| 1950.302 | perfectly fertile. The hybrids from the | common and Chinese geese (A. cygnoides |
| 1986.1387 | making reciprocal crosses is extremely | common in a lesser degree. He has observed it |
| 2012.370 | so it sometimes is in grafting; the | common gooseberry, for instance, cannot be |
| 2026.784 | lived, as we see in the case of the | common mule. Hybrids, however, are differently |
| 2040.621 | some respects allied, sterility is the | common result,—in the one case from the |
| 2048.753 | seem to be connected together by some | common but unknown bond, which is essentially |
| 2078.131 | fact, that one variety of the | common tobacco is more fertile, when crossed |
| 2149.365 | intermediate between each species and a | common but unknown progenitor; and the |
| 2155.218 | them, but between each and an unknown | common parent. The common parent will have had |
| 2155.237 | each and an unknown common parent. The | common parent will have had in its whole |
| 2163.171 | on backwards, always converging to the | common ancestor of each great class. So that |
| 2273.421 | some few still existing species are | common in the deposit, but have become extinct |
| 2345.1352 | cirripede was a Chthamalus, a very | common, large, and ubiquitous genus, of which |
| 2400.131 | organic beings, better accord with the | common view of the immutability of species, or |
| 2458.847 | from some inherited inferiority in | common. But whether it be species belonging to |
| 2464.446 | will partake of some inferiority in | common.
Thus, as it seems to me, the manner |
| 2472.1013 | if the few fossil species which are | common to the Old and New Worlds be kept |
| 2500.638 | from inheriting some inferiority in | common; and therefore as new and improved |
| 2520.523 | to distinct families. The most | common case, especially with respect to very |
| 2522.8 | small approach to each other.
It is a | common belief that the more ancient a form is |
| 2528.939 | all will have inherited something in | common from their ancient and common |
| 2528.969 | in common from their ancient and | common progenitor. On the principle of the |
| 2540.328 | have not diverged in character from the | common progenitor of the order, nearly so much |
| 2578.522 | be vain to look for animals having the | common embryological character of the |
| 2614.162 | from their inferiority inherited from a | common progenitor, tend to become extinct |
| 2618.758 | to, and consequently resemble, the | common progenitor of groups, since be-

| 2689.213 | on my theory have all descended from a | common progenitor, can have migrated |

| 2743.439 | large number of the species of plants | common to Europe, in comparison with the |
| 2795.86 | period, as soon as the species in | common, which inhabited the New and Old Worlds |

| 2843.537 | plants, about forty-six in number, | common to Tierra del Fuego and to Europe still |
| 2861.326 | as far, and is twice or thrice as | common, as another species within their own |
| 2863.1097 | migrated in radiating lines from some | common centre; and I am inclined to look in |
| 2886.220 | river-systems will have some fish in | common and some different. A few facts seem to |
| 2892.121 | on my theory, are descended from a | common parent and must have proceeded from a |

| 3063.844 | have, on this same principle, much in | common, and form a sub-family, distinct from |
| 3063.965 | the right hand, which diverged from a | common parent at the fifth stage of descent |
| 3063.1060 | genera have also much, though less, in | common; and they form a family distinct from |
| 3069.442 | by one sentence to give the characters | common, for instance, to all mammals, by |
| 3069.497 | to all mammals, by another those | common to all carnivora, by another those |

| 3109.330 | which have hardly a character in | common; yet the species at both ends, from |
| 3117.344 | those which have been inherited from a | common parent, and, in so far, all true |
| 3119.335 | in the same degree in blood to their | common progenitor, may differ greatly, being |

| 3135.892 | identical; no one puts the swedish and | common turnips together, though the esculent |
| 3139.94 | all are kept together from having the | common habit of tumbling; but the short-faced |
| 3141.329 | a single fact can be predicated in | common of the males and hermaphrodites of |
| 3145.680 | where there has been close descent in | common, there will certainly be close |
| 3151.435 | habits, only by its inheritance from a | common parent. We may err in this respect in |
| 3151.752 | characters have been inherited from a | common ancestor. And we know that such |

As |

a | common parent, together with their retention |
| 3185.84 | by inheritance of some characters in | common, we can understand the excessively |
| 3185.251 | group are connected together. For the | common parent of a whole family of species |
| 3191.1343 | A, or from I, would have something in | common. In a tree we can specify this or that |
| 3197.482 | ages, although having few characters in | common, under one species; we use descent in |

| 3412.1064 | will be able to decide, on the | common view, whether or not these doubtful |

| 737.241 | of the same genus, when they come into | competition with each other, than between species |
| 737.859 | other cases. We can dimly see why the | competition should be most severe between allied |
| 741.252 | beings, with which it comes into | competition for food or residence, or from which it |
| 747.668 | on the borders of an utter desert, will | competition cease. The land may be extremely cold |
| 747.744 | cold or dry, yet there will be | competition between some few species, or between |
| 926.103 | checking immigration and consequently | competition, will give time for any new variety to |
| 934.411 | area, and will thus come into | competition with many others. Hence more new places |
| 934.487 | more new places will be formed, and the | competition to fill them will be more severe, on a |
| 940.263 | or of the land; and, consequently, the | competition between fresh-water productions will |
| 940.951 | having thus been exposed to less severe | competition.
To sum up the circumstances |
| 942.640 | will have been subjected to very severe | competition. When converted by subsidence into |
| 946.327 | area, there will again be severe | competition: the most favoured or improved |
| 964.235 | The forms which stand in closest | competition with those undergoing modification and |
| 964.619 | generally come into the severest | competition with each other. Consequently, each new |

| 1048.529 | For it should be remembered that the | competition will generally be most severe between |
| 1052.160 | which child and parent do not come into | competition, both may continue to exist.
If then |
| 1108.441 | has apparently been saved from fatal | competition by having inhabited a protected station |
| 1171.843 | preserved, owing to the less severe | competition to which the inhabitants of these dark |
| 1177.312 | are limited in their ranges by the | competition of other organic beings quite as much |
| 1392.318 | favoured forms with which it comes into | competition. Thus extinction and natural selection |
| 1412.1016 | destroyed, or with which it comes into | competition; and as these species are already |
| 1630.365 | country, must act chiefly through the | competition of the inhabitants one with another |
| 1634.97 | and more diversified forms, and the | competition will have been severer, and thus the |
| 2157.383 | amount of change; and the principle of | competition between organism and organism, between |
| 2412.847 | which the varying species comes into | competition. Hence it is by no means surprising |
| 2412.1706 | we can understand, on the principle of | competition, and on that of the many all-important |
| 2452.202 | over those with which it comes into | competition; and the consequent extinction of less |
| 2454.4 | the same number of old forms.
The | competition will generally be most severe, as |
| 2458.1194 | station, where they have escaped severe | competition. For instance, a single species of |
| 2494.436 | favourable variations, and that severe | competition with many already existing forms, would |
| 2570.288 | one quarter of the world were put into | competition with the existing inhabitants of the |
| 2669.416 | of species, which stand in direct | competition with each other, migrate in a body into |
| 2851.612 | advanced through natural selection and | competition to a higher stage of perfection or |
| 2910.393 | compared with those on the land, the | competition will probably be less severe between |

| 515.728 | result is thus rendered infinitely | complex. In some cases, I do not doubt that the |
| 641.717 | of any species, in its infinitely | complex relations to other organic beings and |
| 707.37 | Many cases are on record showing how | complex and unexpected are the checks and |
| 719.138 | nature, are bound together by a web of | complex relations. I shall hereafter have |
| 766.601 | Let it be borne in mind how infinitely | complex and close-fitting are the mutual |
| 766.903 | some way to each being in the great and | complex battle of life, should sometimes occur |
| 772.343 | what we have seen of the intimate and | complex manner in which the inhabitants of each |
| 788.402 | infinitely better adapted to the most | complex conditions of life, and should plainly |
| 838.23 | s flocks.
Let us now take a more | complex case. Certain plants excrete a sweet |
| 934.59 | the conditions of life are infinitely | complex from the large number of already |
| 1032.376 | and this will depend on infinitely | complex relations. But as a general rule, the |
| 1102.365 | explained through inheritance and the | complex action of natural selection, entailing |
| 1125.320 | have produced the many striking and | complex co-adaptations of structure between one |
| 1231.1020 | antennæ. Now the saving of a large and | complex structure, when rendered superfluous by |
| 1323.38 | I will, however, give one curious and | complex case, not indeed as affecting any |
| 1494.438 | numerous gradations from a perfect and | complex eye to one very imperfect and simple |
| 1494.824 | of believing that a perfect and | complex eye could be formed by natural
[page |
| 1516.37 | If it could be demonstrated that any | complex organ existed, which could not possibly |
| 1558.285 | in the case of an organ as perfect and | complex as the eye.
In the first place, we are |
| 1590.1415 | directly, or indirectly through the | complex laws of growth.
Natural selection |
| 1663.545 | thus, as I believe, that all the most | complex and wonderful instincts have originated |
| 1665.3 | deviations of bodily structure.
No | complex instinct can possibly be produced |
| 1669.240 | transitional gradations by which each | complex instinct has been acquired-for these |
| 1669.801 | gradations, leading to the most | complex instincts, can be discovered. The canon |
| 1938.604 | the degree of fertility of some of the | complex crosses of Rhododendrons, and I am |

Now do these | complex and singular rules indicate that |
| 2020.69 | And as we must look at the curious and | complex laws governing the facility with which |
| 2020.250 | so I believe that the still more | complex laws governing the facility of first |
| 2118.615 | but is governed by several curious and | complex laws. It is generally different, and |
| 2412.559 | in the varying species, depends on many | complex contingencies,—on the variability being |
| 2412.1466 | and lower productions, by the more | complex relations of the higher beings to their |

| 2528.134 | As the subject is somewhat | complex, I must request the reader to turn to |
| 2610.777 | necessarily slow, and depends on many | complex contingencies. The dominant species of |
| 2669.248 | far as it profits the individual in its | complex struggle for life, so the degree of |
| 3055.280 | characters—Affinities, general, | complex and radiating—Extinction separates and |

| 1245.414 | that he has come to a nearly similar | conclusion. It is hopeless to attempt to convince |
| 1303.352 | We may I think confidently come to this | conclusion, because, as we have seen, these |

One remark is here worth a passing |

| 1620.42 | have seen that a species may under new | conditions of life change its habits, or have |
| 1622.278 | for its possessor, then, under changing | conditions of life, there is no logical |
| 1638.111 | two great laws-Unity of Type, and the | Conditions of Existence. By unity of type is meant |
| 1638.389 | by unity of descent. The expression of | conditions of existence, so often insisted on by |
| 1638.630 | each being to its organic and inorganic | conditions of life; or by having adapted them |
| 1638.832 | by the direct action of the external | conditions of life, and being in all cases |
| 1638.947 | growth. Hence, in fact, the law of the | Conditions of Existence is the higher law; as it |
| 1663.138 | of each species, under its present | conditions of life. Under changed conditions of |
| 1663.172 | conditions of life. Under changed | conditions of life, it is at least possible that |
| 1689.1834 | shorter period, under less fixed | conditions of life.
How strongly these domestic |
| 1821.145 | profitable to the individual under its | conditions of life, it may reasonably be asked |
| 1883.175 | I can see no difficulty, under changing | conditions of life, in natural selection |
| 1885.241 | and living under considerably different | conditions of life, yet often retaining nearly the |
| 1896.382 | between the effects of changed | conditions of life and crossing—Fertility of |
| 1974.93 | is more easily affected by unfavourable | conditions, than is the fertility of pure species |
| 1974.601 | capsule and exposed to exactly the same | conditions.
By the term systematic affinity is |
| 1994.285 | or even to fertility under certain | conditions in excess. That their fertility |
| 1994.396 | to favourable and unfavourable | conditions, is innately variable. That it is by no |

| 2026.1230 | by the mother, it may be exposed to | conditions in some degree unsuitable, and |
| 2026.1417 | sensitive to injurious or unnatural | conditions of life.
In regard to the sterility of |
| 2028.271 | plants are removed from their natural | conditions, they are extremely liable to have |
| 2032.589 | rendered impotent by the same unnatural | conditions; and whole groups of species tend to |
| 2032.743 | will sometimes resist great changes of | conditions with unimpaired fertility; and certain |
| 2032.1165 | placed during several generations under | conditions not natural to them, they are extremely |
| 2034.72 | are placed under new and unnatural | conditions, and when hybrids are produced by the |
| 2034.299 | similar manner. In the one case, the | conditions of life have been disturbed, though |
| 2038.76 | case, or that of hybrids, the external | conditions have remained the same, but the |
| 2038.465 | and organs one to another, or to the | conditions of life. When hybrids are able to breed |
| 2040.489 | organism, when placed under unnatural | conditions, is rendered sterile. All that I have |
| 2040.661 | common result,—in the one case from the | conditions of life having been disturbed, in the |
| 2042.242 | of evidence, that slight changes in the | conditions of life are beneficial to all living |
| 2046.776 | if these be kept under the same | conditions of life, always induces weakness and |
| 2048.60 | on the one hand, slight changes in the | conditions of life benefit all organic beings, and |
| 2060.572 | and disappearing under nearly the same | conditions of life. Lastly, and this seems to me |
| 2094.843 | sensitive to any change in the | conditions of life, being thus often rendered |
| 2118.494 | of favourable and unfavourable | conditions. The degree of sterility does not |
| 2126.382 | pure species, when their natural | conditions of life have been disturbed. This view |
| 2126.631 | and that slight changes in the | conditions of life are apparently favourable to |
| 2143.530 | continuous area with graduated physical | conditions. I endeavoured to show, that the life |
| 2143.745 | therefore, that the really governing | conditions of life do not graduate away quite |
| 2412.719 | on the slowly changing physical | conditions of the country, and more especially on |

| 2444.480 | that something is unfavourable in its | conditions of life; but what that something is, we |
| 2444.838 | America, that under more favourable | conditions it would in a very few years have |

formations, by the physical | conditions of the ancient areas having remained |
| 2562.282 | under the most different climates and | conditions. Consider the prodigious vicissitudes |
| 2586.296 | on the one hand, by dissimilar physical | conditions for the dissimilarity of the |
| 2590.41 | on the other hand, by similarity of | conditions, for the uniformity of the same types |
| 2637.266 | by their climatal and other physical | conditions. Of late, almost every author who has |
| 2637.807 | we meet with the most diversified | conditions; the most humid districts, arid deserts |
| 2637.1210 | confined to any small spot, having | conditions peculiar in only a slight
[page |
| 2641.204 | Notwithstanding this parallelism in the | conditions of the Old and New Worlds, how widely |
| 2643.200 | parts extremely similar in all their | conditions, yet it would not be possible to point |
| 2661.206 | and independent of their physical | conditions. The naturalist must feel little |
| 2663.395 | direct influence of different physical | conditions. The degree of dissimilarity will |
| 2663.1266 | new homes they will be exposed to new | conditions, and will frequently undergo further |
| 2669.766 | degree with the surrounding physical | conditions. As we have seen in the last chapter |
| 2677.1510 | and Australia or South America? The | conditions of life are
[page] 353 CHAP. XI |
| 2683.250 | and subsistence under past and present | conditions permitted, is the most probable |
| 2803.334 | with the nearly similar physical | conditions of the areas; for if we compare, for |
| 2803.531 | corresponding in all their physical | conditions, but with their inhabitants utterly |
| 2839.1249 | have been placed under somewhat new | conditions, will have suffered less. And it is |
| 2918.506 | of any difference in physical | conditions has caused so great a difference in |
| 2934.80 | generally accounted for by the physical | conditions of the islands; but this explanation |
| 2934.251 | least as important as the nature of the | conditions.
Many remarkable little facts could be |
| 2942.587 | be accounted for by their physical | conditions; indeed it seems that islands are |
| 2972.936 | in America? There is nothing in the | conditions of life, in the geological nature of |
| 2972.1129 | together, which resembles closely the | conditions of the South American coast: in fact |
| 2984.1282 | error of considering the physical | conditions of a country as the most important for |
| 2988.468 | undoubtedly be exposed to different | conditions of life in the different islands, for |
| 2998.819 | commingling of species under the same | conditions of life. Thus, the south-east and south |
| 2998.926 | Australia have nearly the same physical | conditions, and are united by continuous land, yet |
| 3006.147 | former period under different physical | conditions, and the existence at remote points of |
| 3010.1389 | and should place itself under diverse | conditions favourable for the conversion of its |
| 3016.93 | modified in relation to their new | conditions. There is, also, some reason to believe |
| 3032.1111 | areas having nearly the same physical | conditions should often be inhabited by very |
| 3032.1696 | independently of their physical | conditions, infinitely diversified conditions of |
| 3032.1731 | conditions, infinitely diversified | conditions of life,—there would be an almost |
| 3044.427 | at some former period under different | conditions or by occasional means of transport |
| 3081.620 | the adaptation of the species to their | conditions of life. That the mere physiological |
| 3147.928 | have been modified in relation to the | conditions of life to which each species has been |
| 3153.679 | to preserve life under the most diverse | conditions of existence—are generally the most |
| 3159.1248 | may readily become adapted to similar | conditions, and thus assume a close external |
| 3245.185 | branchial slits are related to similar | conditions,—in the young mammal which is nourished |
| 3245.535 | of a porpoise, are related to similar | conditions of life. No one will suppose that the |
| 3245.708 | to these animals, or are related to the | conditions to which they are exposed.
The case |
| 3247.251 | on, the adaptation of the larva to its | conditions of life is just as perfect and as |
| 3257.490 | embryo not being closely related to its | conditions of existence, except when the
[page |
| 3263.914 | elements having been affected by the | conditions to which either parent, or their |
| 3337.1130 | Again, an organ useful under certain | conditions, might become injurious under others |
| 3392.389 | disturbed by slightly different and new | conditions of life, we need not feel surprise at |
| 3392.783 | increased by slight changes in their | conditions of life, and that the offspring of |
| 3392.979 | one hand, considerable changes in the | conditions of life and crosses between greatly |
| 3392.1105 | the other hand, lesser changes in the | conditions of life and crosses between less |
| 3404.188 | and of which the climate and other | conditions of life change insensibly in going from |
| 3426.197 | eminently susceptible to changes in the | conditions of life; so that this system, when not |
| 3426.457 | by the direct action of the physical | conditions of life. There is much difficulty in |
| 3426.710 | for long periods. As long as the | conditions of life remain the same, we have reason |
| 3432.46 | exposes organic beings to new | conditions of life, and then nature acts on the |
| 3438.578 | a degree to the surrounding physical | conditions, will turn the balance.

| 291.1183 | though living long under not very close | confinement in their native country! This is |
| 295.110 | the reproduction of animals under | confinement, I may just mention that carnivorous |
| 295.233 | in this country pretty freely under | confinement, with the exception of the plantigrades |
| 295.622 | sickly, yet breeding quite freely under | confinement; and when, on the other hand, we see |
| 295.979 | at this system, when it does act under | confinement, acting not quite regularly, and |
| 393.915 | man, as to be quite prolific under | confinement.
An argument, as it seems to me, of |
| 822.407 | who have closely attended to birds in | confinement well know that they often take |
| 1179.129 | they were useful and bred readily under | confinement, and not because they were subsequently |
| 1701.565 | to habit and long-continued close | confinement.
Natural instincts are lost under |

| 747.585 | alone. Not until we reach the extreme | confines of life, in the arctic regions or on |
| 908.1029 | individuals of the same species on the | confines of each. And in this case the effects |
| 942.808 | on each island: intercrossing on the | confines of the range of each species will thus |
| 1408.189 | abruptly rarer and rarer on the | confines, and finally disappearing. Hence the |
| 1412.1307 | defined. Moreover, each species on the | confines of its range, where it exists in |

| 3135.3 | and origin of each tongue.
In | confirmation of this view, let us glance at the |
3 | | | confirmed | |
| 1936.408 | result. This result has, also, been | confirmed by other observers in the case of |
| 2078.35 | Kölreuter, whose accuracy has been | confirmed by every subsequent observer, has |

Lastly |
| 1404.333 | This difficulty for a long time quite | confounded me. But I think it can be in large part |
| 1900.111 | different, have generally been | confounded together; namely, the sterility of two |
| 1972.284 | classes of facts which are generally | confounded together-is by no means strict. There |
| 2000.128 | simply to prevent their becoming | confounded in nature? I think not. For why should |

| 1378.249 | forms? Why is not all nature in | confusion instead of the species being, as we see |

it would | connect together all languages, extinct and |

There is one point | connected with individual differences, which |

| 1245.1523 | to one sex, but are not directly | connected with the act of reproduction. The rule |
| 1293.800 | are all principles closely | connected together. All being mainly due to the |

| 1986.625 | show that the capacity for crossing is | connected with constitutional differences |
| 2048.726 | Both series of facts seem to be | connected together by some common but unknown |
| 2159.64 | selection all living species have been | connected with the parent-species of each genus |
| 2163.88 | have in their turn been similarly | connected with more ancient species; and so on |
| 2291.660 | the same time it could be most closely | connected with either one or both forms by |
| 2301.117 | examination, two forms can seldom be | connected by intermediate varieties and thus |
| 2325.209 | which on my theory assuredly have | connected all the past and present species of the |

There is one other remark | connected with this subject worth making. I have |
| 2558.8 | series in this same respect.
Closely | connected with the statement, that the organic |
| 2604.196 | links which must formerly have | connected the closely allied or representative |
| 2618.120 | together one grand system; for all are | connected by generation. We can understand, from |
| 2703.709 | land may at a former period have | connected islands or possibly even continents |
| 2707.196 | in the Atlantic must recently have been | connected with Europe or Africa, and Europe |
| 2944.579 | as oceanic, as it lies on a bank | connected with the mainland; moreover, icebergs |
| 2960.601 | oceanic islands having been formerly | connected by continuous land with the nearest |
| 3044.1583 | the forms within each class have been | connected by the same bond of ordinary generation |
| 3075.737 | resemblances, though so intimately | connected with the whole life of the being, are |
| 3153.426 | common, yet if these extreme forms are | connected together by a chain of intermediate |
| 3185.223 | of the same family or higher group are | connected together. For the common parent of a |
| 3187.426 | progenitors of birds were formerly | connected with the early progenitors of the other |
| 3187.566 | of the forms of life which once | connected fishes with batrachians. There has been |
| 3197.1585 | the several members of each class are | connected together by the most complex and |
| 3203.983 | and size, and yet they always remain | connected together in the same order. We never |

| 3498.585 | for in both cases the beings have been | connected by the bond of ordinary generation, and |
| 3546.322 | All the members of whole classes can be | connected together by chains of affinities, and |
| 3558.390 | latter are known, or believed, to be | connected at the present day by intermediate |

| 2916.812 | mere question of dispersal; but shall | consider some other facts, which bear on the |
| 3075.11 | us by our classifications.
Let us now | consider the rules followed in classification |
| 3117.234 | that the characters which naturalists | consider as showing true affinity between any |
| 3378.714 | of any organ or instinct, which we may | consider, either do now exist or could have |
| 3544.830 | appearance of species in what they | consider reverent silence.
It may be asked how |
| 3546.168 | distinct the forms are which we may | consider, by so much the arguments fall away in |
29 | | | considerable | |
| 321.163 | both those of slight and those of | considerable physiological importance, is endless |
| 337.907 | conditions, and whilst kept in a | considerable body, so that free intercrossing might |
| 371.503 | of them are very important, as being of | considerable antiquity. I have associated with |
| 526.884 | a monstrosity I presume is meant some | considerable deviation of structure in one part |
| 542.34 | Those forms which possess in some | considerable degree the character of species, but |
| 681.571 | work, discuss some of the checks at | considerable length, more especially in regard to |
| 914.170 | natural selection; for I can bring a | considerable catalogue of facts, showing that within |
| 930.45 | I do not doubt that isolation is of | considerable importance in the production of new |
| 1032.941 | to have allowed the accumulation of a | considerable amount of divergent variation.
As all |
| 1054.46 | our diagram be assumed to represent a | considerable amount of modification, species (A) and |
| 1195.47 | disuse, have, in some cases, played a | considerable part in the modification of the |

| 2042.184 | belief, founded, I think, on a | considerable body of evidence, that slight changes |
| 2249.685 | oscillation of level, and thus gained | considerable thickness.
All geological facts tell |
| 2285.1549 | that if such species were to undergo a | considerable amount of modification during any one |
| 2299.363 | been modified and perfected in some | considerable degree. According to this view, the |
| 2502.521 | inhabitants of each region underwent a | considerable amount of modification and extinction |

Thus, as I believe, a | considerable number of plants, a few terrestrial |
| 2886.803 | evidence in the loess of the Rhine of | considerable changes of level in the land within a |

| 2060.647 | seems to me by far the most important | consideration, new races of animals and plants are |
| 2207.492 | having been smoothly swept away. The | consideration of these facts impresses my mind almost |

One other | consideration is worth notice: with animals and |

| 3558.528 | Hence, without quite rejecting the | consideration of the present existence of |
19 | | | considerations | |
| 260.11 | neglected by naturalists.
From these | considerations, I shall devote the first chapter of |

Guided by theoretical | considerations, I thought that some interesting |
| 675.65 | is most necessary to keep the foregoing | considerations always in mind—never to forget that |
| 864.1303 | details, I must trust to some general | considerations alone.
In the first place, I have |

From these several | considerations and from the many special facts which I |

From these several | considerations I think it inevitably follows, that as |
| 1139.195 | under the most opposite climates. Such | considerations as these incline me to lay very little |
| 1153.414 | frequent flight;—these several | considerations have made me believe that the wingless |

| 2080.432 | reproductive system; from these several | considerations and facts, I do not think that the very |

From the foregoing | considerations it cannot be doubted that the |
| 2265.613 | proportional weight to the following | considerations.
Although each formation may mark a |
| 2357.23 | distant seas.
From these and similar | considerations, but chiefly from our ignorance of the |
| 2687.128 | belief, rendered probable by general | considerations, that each species has been produced |
| 2998.426 | over the indigenous species. From these | considerations I think we need not greatly marvel at |
| 3024.819 | centres of creation, by some general | considerations, more especially from the importance of |

| 1994.139 | we see that when forms, which must be | considered as good and distinct species, are |

2 | | | constancy | |
| 3081.443 | I believe, depends on their greater | constancy throughout large groups of species; and |

| 796.301 | colour, when once acquired, true and | constant. Nor ought we to think that the |

| 1257.1753 | There may be truly said to be a | constant struggle going on between, on the one |
| 1263.976 | for a much longer period nearly | constant. And this, I am convinced, is the case |

In connexion with the present subject |

| 2693.578 | inheritance to the inhabitants of the | continent. Cases of this nature are common, and |
| 2707.540 | has not recently been united to some | continent. This view cuts the Gordian knot of the |

| 2948.237 | on very small islands, if close to a | continent; and hardly an island can be named on |

Turning to the sea, we find the same |

| 653.403 | become so inordinately great that no | country could support the product. Hence, as |
| 673.133 | ostrich a score, and yet in the same | country the condor may be the more numerous of |
| 707.157 | have to struggle together in the same | country. I will give only a single instance |
| 749.71 | a plant or animal is placed in a new | country amongst new competitors, though the |
| 749.402 | what we should have done in its native | country; for we should have to give it some |
| 772.90 | selection by taking the case of a | country undergoing some physical change, for |
| 772.391 | manner in which the inhabitants of each | country are bound together, that any change in |
| 772.594 | affect many of the others. If the | country were open on its borders, new forms |
| 772.898 | But in the case of an island, or of a | country partly surrounded by barriers, into |
| 778.1052 | For as all the inhabitants of each | country are struggling together with nicely |
| 778.1337 | further increase the advantage. No | country can be named in which all the native |
| 784.652 | natives of many climates in the same | country; he seldom exercises each selected |
| 830.405 | instance, had from any change in the | country increased in numbers, or that other |
| 856.521 | humble-bees were to become rare in any | country, it might be a great advantage to the |
| 890.676 | plants, I find to be the case in this | country; and at my request Dr. Hooker tabulated |
| 922.785 | places in the natural economy of the | country are left open for the old inhabitants |
| 948.206 | by some of the inhabitants of the | country undergoing modification of some kind |
| 982.158 | the number that can be supported in any | country has long ago arrived at its full |
| 982.295 | act, it can succeed in increasing (the | country not undergoing any change in its |
| 994.286 | created and adapted for their own | country. It might, also, perhaps have been |
| 996.111 | successfully with the indigenes of any | country, and have there become naturalised, we |
| 1006.147 | the species of a genus large in its own | country; these species are supposed to resemble |
| 1018.406 | belonging to a genus large in its own | country. The little fan of diverging dotted |
| 1024.368 | of the other inhabitants of the same | country; they will likewise partake of those |
| 1024.521 | belonged, a large genus in its own | country. And these circumstances we know to be |
| 1048.183 | part. As in each fully stocked | country natural selection necessarily acts by |
| 1052.55 | of a species get into some distinct | country, or become quickly adapted to some |
| 1056.815 | places in the natural economy of their | country. It seems, therefore, to me extremely |
| 1080.26 | genus.
We have seen that in each | country it is the species of the larger genera |
| 1171.106 | allied to those of the surrounding | country. It would be most difficult to give any |
| 1177.792 | on the Himalaya, were found in this | country to possess different constitutional |
| 1251.25 | genera.
As birds within the same | country vary in a remarkably small degree, I |
| 1392.177 | new form will tend in a fully-stocked | country to take the place of, and finally to |
| 1412.802 | the range of the inhabitants of any | country by no means exclusively depends on |
| 1424.531 | accounts for the common species in each | country, as shown in the second chapter |
| 1430.14 | ON THEORY. CHAP. VI.
polity of the | country can be better filled by some |
| 1450.608 | use to each kind of squirrel in its own | country, by enabling it to escape birds or |
| 1472.1059 | like a kingfisher at a fish. In our own | country the larger titmouse (Parus major) may |
| 1476.519 | did not already exist in the | country, I can see no difficulty in a race of |
| 1492.468 | over some other inhabitant of the | country, it will seize on the place of that |
| 1580.432 | from lowland breeds; and a mountainous | country would probably affect the hind limbs |
| 1600.136 | than, the other inhabitants of the same | country with which it has to struggle for |
| 1630.327 | Natural selection in each well-stocked | country, must act chiefly through the |
| 1630.531 | only according to the standard of that | country. Hence the inhabitants of one country |

| 1681.210 | on the nature and temperature of the | country inhabited, but often from causes wholly |
| 1755.1201 | and larvæ. So that the masters in this | country receive much less service from their |
| 1825.840 | of a humble-bee which could exist in a | country; and let us further suppose that the |
| 1898.270 | probable, for species within the same | country could hardly have kept distinct had |
| 1950.449 | genera, have often bred in this | country with either pure parent, and in one |
| 1950.977 | geese are kept in various parts of the | country; and as they are kept for profit, where |

| 1731.402 | females, though most energetic and | courageous in capturing slaves, do no other work |
| 1747.319 | Although so small a species, it is very | courageous, and I have seen it ferociously attack |
63 | | | course | |
| 331.645 | of embryology. These remarks are of | course confined to the first appearance of the |
| 469.59 | illustration of the effects of a | course of selection, which may be considered |
| 532.1181 | as I have collected, during a | course of years. It should be remembered that |
| 687.39 | The amount of food for each species of | course gives the extreme limit to which each |
| 729.631 | animals which have determined, in the | course of centuries, the proportional numbers |
| 766.957 | of life, should sometimes occur in the | course of thousands of generations? If such do |
| 772.38 | We shall best understand the probable | course of natural selection by taking the case |
| 776.101 | every slight modification, which in the | course of ages chanced to arise, and which in |
| 864.144 | plants with separated sexes, it is of | course obvious that two individuals must |
| 934.962 | production of new species, yet that the | course of modification will generally have |
| 954.336 | life, which may be effected in the long | course of time by nature's power of selection |
| 964.92 | follows, that as new species in the | course of time are formed through natural |
| 976.660 | would be very slight; in the | course of time, from the continued selection |
| 986.38 | sequently, I cannot doubt that in the | course of many thousands of generations, the |
| 1086.38 | Summary of Chapter—If during the long | course of ages and under varying conditions of |

| 2060.313 | eminent naturalists believe that a long | course of domestication tends to eliminate |
| 2143.1007 | beaten out and exterminated during the | course of further modification and improvement |
| 2213.861 | to have denuded the Weald. This, of | course, cannot be done; but we may, in order |

| 2536.787 | but only by a long and circuitous | course through many widely different forms. If |
| 2570.1156 | set free in New Zealand, that in the | course of time a multitude of British forms |
| 2576.858 | unaltered, continually adds, in the | course of successive generations, more and |

| 2693.434 | would probably receive from it in the | course of time a few colonists, and their |
| 2707.1531 | a single birthplace, and when in the | course of time we know something definite |
| 2731.567 | digestive organs of a turkey. In the | course of two months, I picked up in my garden |
| 2749.967 | them to be. The currents, from their | course, would never bring seeds from North |
| 2839.1775 | the equator. The invasion would, of | course, have been greatly favoured by high |

| 3032.69 | in admitting that in the long | course of time the individuals of the same |
| 3103.142 | the adult, for our classifications of | course include all ages of each species. But |
| 3145.122 | kangaroo had been produced, by a long | course of modification, from a bear? Ought we |
| 3145.273 | other species? The supposition is of | course preposterous; and I might answer by the |

I am aware that Colonel Hamilton |
51 | | | created | |
| 250.322 | each species had not been independently | created, but had descended, like varieties |
| 622.937 | if each species has been independently | created.
We have, also, seen that it is the |
| 994.252 | are commonly looked at as specially | created and adapted for their own country. It |
| 1102.190 | each species has been independently | created, I can see no explanation of this great |
| 1131.764 | say that this shell, for instance, was | created with bright colours for a warm sea; but |
| 1167.190 | blind animals having been separately | created for the American and European caverns |
| 1257.207 | each species has been independently | created, with all its parts as we now see them |
| 1275.63 | each species having been independently | created, why should that part of the structure |
| 1297.1461 | each species having been independently | created, we should have to attribute this |
| 1317.426 | forms be considered as independently | created species, that the one in varying has |
| 1351.59 | each equine species was independently | created, will, I presume, assert that each |
| 1351.119 | assert that each species has been | created with a tendency to vary, both under |
| 1351.308 | of the genus; and that each has been | created with a strong tendency, when crossed |
| 1351.796 | shells had never lived, but had been | created in stone so as to mock the shells now |
| 1486.41 | who believes that each being has been | created as we now see it, must occasionally |
| 1552.791 | each supposed to have been separately | created for its proper place in nature, be so |
| 1586.259 | that very many structures have been | created for beauty in the eyes of man, or for |
| 1889.159 | not as specially endowed or | created instincts, but as small consequences of |
| 2112.235 | at species as having been specially | created, and at varieties as having been |
| 2335.328 | such species will appear as if suddenly | created.
I may here recall a remark formerly |
| 2677.119 | namely, whether species have been | created at one or more points of the earth's |
| 2695.304 | from many individuals simultaneously | created. With those organic beings which never |

Many other facts |

| 3490.420 | if species have been independently | created, and varieties have been produced by |
| 3524.1033 | separate organ having been specially | created, how utterly inexplicable it is that |
| 3540.202 | real, that is, have been independently | created. This seems to me a strange conclusion |

The author of the 'Vestiges of | Creation' would, I presume, say that, after a |
| 526.604 | unknown element of a distinct act of | creation. The term "variety" is almost equally |

has probably received at some former |
| 2693.711 | on the theory of independent | creation. This view of the relation of species |
| 2695.56 | on "single and multiple centres of | creation" do not directly bear on another allied |
| 2701.152 | on the theory of "single centres of | creation," I must say a few words on the means |
| 2803.224 | are inexplicable on the theory of | creation. We cannot say that they have been |
| 2916.898 | of the two theories of independent | creation and of descent with modification.
The |

| 2948.409 | cannot be said, on the ordinary view of | creation, that there has not been time for the |
| 2948.456 | that there has not been time for the | creation of mammals; many volcanic islands are |
| 2958.494 | on the view of independent acts of | creation.
All the foregoing remarks on the |
| 2972.1717 | on the ordinary view of independent | creation; whereas on the view here maintained |
| 3018.680 | on the ordinary view of the independent | creation of each species, but are explicable on |
| 3024.793 | the designation of single centres of | creation, by some general considerations, more |
| 3075.167 | either gives some unknown plan of | creation, or is simply a scheme for enunciating |

| 3201.216 | and do not look to some unknown plan of | creation, we may hope to make sure but slow |
| 3209.323 | On the ordinary view of the independent | creation of each being, we can only say that so |
| 3223.57 | are these facts on the ordinary view of | creation! Why should the brain be enclosed in a |

| 3450.263 | have been produced by special acts of | creation, and varieties which are acknowledged |

As natural selection acts solely by |
| 3476.685 | How inexplicable on the theory of | creation is the occasional appearance of stripes |
| 3482.207 | It is inexplicable on the theory of | creation why a part developed in a very unusual |
| 3508.165 | on the theory of independent acts of | creation.
The existence of closely allied or |

The fact, as we have seen, that all |

| 3538.61 | under such expressions as the "plan of | creation," "unity of design," &c., and to think |

| 441.124 | closely allied sub-breeds. And when a | cross has been made, the closest selection is |
| 455.541 | attended to. Savages now sometimes | cross their dogs with wild canine animals, to |
| 836.1260 | slowly be formed. These varieties would | cross and blend where they met; but to this |
| 842.1697 | insects from flower to flower, and a | cross thus effected, although nine-tenths of |
| 866.163 | that with animals and plants a | cross between different varieties, or between |
| 870.221 | an eternity of generations; but that a | cross with another individual is occasionally |
| 872.376 | to the weather! but if an occasional | cross be indispensable, the fullest freedom |
| 878.630 | seedlings, so largely do they naturally | cross. In many other cases, far from there |
| 882.575 | explained on the view of an occasional | cross with a distinct individual being |
| 892.355 | plants, on the view of an occasional | cross being indispensable, by considering the |
| 892.608 | case of plants, by which an occasional | cross could be effected with terrestrial |
| 892.841 | an obvious means for an occasional | cross. And, as in the case of flowers, I have |
| 896.586 | hermaphrodites, do sometimes | cross.
It must have struck most naturalists |
| 900.458 | conclude that in many organic beings, a | cross between two individuals is an obvious |
| 912.586 | case. In hermaphrodite organisms which | cross only occasionally, and likewise in |
| 1695.145 | are crossed. Thus it is known that a | cross with a bull-dog has affected for many |
| 1695.248 | and obstinacy of greyhounds; and a | cross with a greyhound has given to a whole |
| 1920.145 | hybrids, carefully guarding them from a | cross with either pure parent, for six or |
| 1924.87 | on the other hand, that an occasional | cross with a distinct individual or variety |
| 1924.1223 | which is to be fertilised; so that a | cross between two flowers, though probably on |

By a reciprocal | cross between two species, I mean the case |
| 1986.416 | that the capacity in any two species to | cross is often completely independent of |

| 1994.536 | and in the hybrids produced from this | cross. That the fertility of hybrids is not |
| 1994.711 | that the facility of making a first | cross between any two species is not always |
| 2000.474 | same species? Why should some species | cross with facility, and yet produce very |
| 2000.551 | very sterile hybrids; and other species | cross with extreme difficulty, and yet |
| 2000.700 | in the result of a reciprocal | cross between the same two species? Why, it |
| 2046.325 | there is abundant evidence, that a | cross between very distinct individuals of |
| 2054.239 | from each other in external appearance, | cross with perfect facility, and yield |
| 2056.304 | indigenous domestic dogs do not readily | cross with European dogs, the explanation |

In the same manner as in grafting |
