Thus, a vast number of caterpillars areremarkable for their beauty; but in their immature state it canhave no relation to sexual selection; and if it may, or rathermust, have a different object in one case, what ground have we forassuming that it may not have a different object in the other? Again, we are not in a position to form any opinion as to thecauses which really influence the pairing of animals when choiceis exercised. We have no certain knowledge upon the importantquestion whether the... ideal of beauty, if possessed by the loweranimals at all, is in all, or even in many cases, in accordancewith our own. We, for instance, admire a male humming-bird; whatcertainty have we that he is equally beautiful in the eyes of hismate? In cases where we have reason to believe that deliberateselection has taken place, we do not know that that selection wasinfluenced by only one condition--that of beauty. There may havebeen a thousand causes at work of which we know nothing. Mr. Darwin brings forward an instance in which the owner of a numberof peahens wished them to breed with a peacock of a particularvariety, while they showed a deliberate preference for anotherbird; and he supposes that their preference was decided by theplumage.
