Book excerpt: Excerpt from Additional Observations on Sexual Selection in Spiders of the Family Attid With Some Remarks on Mr. Wallace's Theory of Sexual Ornamentation On seeing the female, which he does when eight or ten inches away, he approaches her slowly; when within three or four inches lie-begins to sway from side to side by bending all the legs on'on'e side and extending the opposite ones, and then reversing the process, at the same time advancing. The palpi are stretched out sideways, thus exposing the blue clypeus. As he moves, the female eyes him attentively and seems to be interested in his display. When quite near her he raises the first legs and holds them perpendicularly upward, and then, as he comes closer, lowers them so as to touch her. This seems to frighten her, and she runs Off. The whole performance is repeated six or eight times before she finally yields, either to his boldness and persistence, as Mr. Wallace would haveit, or to the combination of these qualities with grace and beauty.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on Sexual Selection in Spiders of the Family Attidae, And, Protective Resemblance in Spiders Females. The most vigorous and energetic usually being able to rear most offspring, intensity of color, if dependent on or cor related with vigor, would tend to increase. But as differences of Color depend upon minute chemical or structural differences in the organism, increasing vigor acting unequally on different portions of the integument, and often producing at the same time abnormal developments of hair, horns, scales, feathers, etc., would almost necessarily lead also to variable distribution of color and thus to the production of new tints and markings. These acquired colors would be transmitted to both sexes, or to one only, according as they first appeared at an early age, or in adults of one sex; but in all cases where an increasing development of color became disadvantageous to the female, it would be checked by natural selection; and thus produce the numerous instances of protective coloring in the female only, 'which occur in these two groups, birds and butter flies.1.
