Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Coloration: An Account of the Principal Facts and Theories Relating to the Colours and Markings of Animals The present volume has grown out of materials which I had collected for the "Davis Lectures," delivered by me in the Zoological Society's Gardens during the spring of 1890. This book is addressed, as were the lectures, to persons having no special knowledge of zoology, but that general interest in the facts and problems of the science, which is now so widely spread. It contains hardly anything novel, but professes to give some account of the principal phenomena of coloration exhibited by animals. Some of the facts and theories, however, have not, so far as I am aware, as yet found their way into works of a popular character; I refer particularly to the ingenious theories of Dr. Eisig and M. Stolzmann. Inasmuch as Mr. Poulton's work upon the Colours of Animals, recently published as one of the volumes of the 'International Scientific Series," and Mr. Wallace's sketch of coloration in his Darwinism," deal with colour almost entirely from the point of view of natural selection, I have attempted to lay some stress upon other aspects of the question. The literature relating to animal coloration is enormous; so much so that it is really beyond the powers of any person who cannot give up his whole time to abstract it thoroughly. To write an exhaustive work upon Animal Coloration requires a sort of naturalist that now hardly can exist - a specialist in every group.

In the preceding chapter attention has been directed to numerous instances of colour and arrangement of colour which appear to have the result of rendering the animal similar to its surroundings. The colours known as '" warning" have a precisely opposite tendency--viz., to render their possessor conspicuous. As the explanation of warning colours was first devised by Mr. Wallace to account for the brilliancy in the tints of certain caterpillars, and as the whole subject has been principally studied by experiments upon these animals, we shall commence here, and afterwards pass on to other groups. The Magpie Moth Caterpillar as an Instance of Warning Colours. One of the most abundant caterpillars in any garden is that of the "Magpie" moth (Abraxas grossulariata); it belongs to the Geometers, but has not the habit, which most of its allies have, of remaining during the day stretched out rigidly from a twig. Nor does it approximate in colour, as do nearly all other Geometers, to the plants upon which it feeds. The colour of the Magpie caterpillar is white, with black stripes and dots, and some reddish marks below. Mr. Jenuer Weir, Mr. A. G. Butler, and Mr. Poultou, found that several birds, lizards, frogs and spiders, almost invariably refused to touch this caterpillar when offered to them; occasionally it was tasted by the tree frog, and once "chewed for some time," but finally rejected, by a hungry Lacerta, muralis. Mr. Weir once found that a specimen was eaten by Lacerta viridis. Some experiments made by myself at the Zoological Gardens partly confirm and partly contradict the conclusion to which the above observations appear to point--viz., that the larva is regarded by birds as inedible.
