British Library Hutton, Frederick Wollaston; 1875. 8 . 7109.aaa.11.
Frederick Wollaston Hutton (1836-1905) was a geologist and a
supporter of Darwinian theory. He emigrated to New Zealand in 1866,
became Professor of Biology at Canterbury College, and won awards
both in Britain and Australasia for his work on the natural history
of New Zealand. He published scientific papers on biology and
zoology as well as geology and, with James Drummond, wrote two
popular works, Nature in New Zealand (1902) and The Animals of New
Zealand (1904). The latter was extremely successful. It was revised
and expanded the following year, and this fourth edition was
published in 1923. The book focuses on native vertebrates, so the
bulk of the content relates to birds, of which Hutton had published
a catalogue in 1871. It also describes marine mammals, reptiles,
and bats, and gives brief coverage to introduced species. There are
154 illustrations, and indexes of Maori, English and scientific
names.

LECTURE II THE NEW DARWINISM ELEVEN years ago I gave a lecture to
the members of this Institute, in which I explained what was then
understood as Darwinism; and I have now undertaken to try to
explain the modern views held by Darwin's followers. Unfortunately
it is a subject which, at the present time, is in a very confused
condition, owing to the innumerable irrelevant issues that have
been raised around it; but, when all the husk has been stripped
off, the new Darwinism will be found to be a simple affair, easily
understood. This confusion is largely due to its history; for the
new Darwinism did not come upon us in a flash, as did the old, but
has been gradually assuming shape for many years. In 1868 Moritz
Wagner read a paper to the Royal Academy of Munich, in which he
maintained that, without the separation of a few indi- 82 viduals
from the rest of the species, natural selection could not act, and
that these individuals must always have been isolated by
geographical barriers. His thesis could not be upheld on either
point, although it brought the importance of isolation prominently
forward; and we may place the birth of the new Darwinism in
November, 1886, when Dr. Romanes's first paper on physiological
selection was published by the I/innean Society of London; for this
contained a new idea. From that time it has gone on gaining
coherence; and last year (1897) it received its latest development
in the third part of Darwin and After Darwin, also the work of Dr.
Romanes. This new Darwinism has not destroyed, or in the least
damaged, the old. Indeed, it is not antagonistic to it in any way.
It is merely an addition; but one of great value, for, as I shall
explain at the end of the lecture, it enlarges much our conception
of the great scheme of nature. The doc...
