Excerpt from Sexual Dimorphism in the Animal Kingdom: A Theory of the Evolution of Secondary Sexual The individuals generated by two parents of the same species are in many cases similar to those parents and to one another, with the exception of those irregular and generally slight differences which we call individual variations. But in other cases we find that the individuals generated by the same two parents differ greatly either from their parents or from one another, so that the species includes two or more well-marked forms or types, intermediate forms being more or less exceptional. The different forms may be sexually perfect, or may reproduce without sexual union, or may be quite sterile. When they are sexually perfect they unite in sexual intercourse and reproduce the same distinct types, which although constantly mingled in the fertilised ova, separate spontaneously in each successive generation, like oil and water after agitation. This is the well-known phenomenon of polymorphism. One of the most frequent cases of this is sexual dimorphism, the occurrence of characters peculiar to the males on the one hand, to the females on the other. Another important instance is the distinction of several classes of individuals in social insects, such as workers and queens, or workers, soldiers and fertile forms. Thirdly, we have to consider the important fact that the structure of the individual is not constant throughout its existence, but that in many cases there is a more or less com plicated metamorphosis, the difference between the two states of the same individual at different periods of life being often greater than that between individuals of distinct orders or classes.

Excerpt from Sexual Dimorphism in the Animal Kingdom: A Theory of the Evolution of Secondary Sexual It must be admitted that my discussion of Sexual Dimorphism in this work is incomplete, and this in two senses. In the first place, evidence of the kind I have endeavoured to collect is in many cases wanting, and has yet to be obtained in the future. The absence of such information is partly due to the difficulty of obtaining it, to the want of opportunities, and partly to the neglect of opportunities and to the absence of any special efforts to obtain it. It is not my intention by such an assertion to throw the blame upon collectors and field naturalists. Their methods of work are naturally adapted to the ends they have in view, and so long as the minute study of habits and conditions of life is generally regarded as of little importance, so long will the collection of specimens and the discovery of species be considered the chief objects of a zoological expedition. It is strange that even from the point of view of selection more attention has not been devoted since Darwin's time to the study of the particular functions or utilities of special characters. When we desire to know fully the irritations and stimulations produced on living tissues by the special habits of the animal, and how its special organs or characters are affected when they come into action, it is clear that the detailed study of the habits of the living animal becomes still more important.
