Excerpt from Entomologist's Record and Journal of Variation, Vol. 12: January to December, 1900

My conclusion was that observed facts do not allow us to admit that this phenomenon can be attributed exclusively to Darwinian selec tion, but that, on the contrary, primitive coloration is due to influences which are entirely independent of the welfare of the animal, and some times even contrary to its needs. The adaptation to the demands of the creature is a secondary action and this only is brought about in accordance with the laws of selection.
