Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation is an 1844 work by Robert Chambers. It was published anonymously in England.  The book openly discussed the transmutation of species in an attractive way. "Vestiges" became an international bestseller. Its theme contradicted the natural theology fashionable at the time. Its ideas were reviled by clergymen.

Surely this idea is too ridiculous to be for a moment entertained". (p154) The general scandal caused by "Vestiges" meant Darwin was reluctant to

It has a wide head, big black eyes, and large disks on its toes for climbing. It lives in primary forest and secondary forest in the Amazon lowlands. The male frog finds a hole in a tree trunk with a pool of water in it 10 to 40 cm deep. The holes are sometimes as close to the ground as 2 meters, but there are more of them more than 10 meters above the ground. If something frightens the male frog, it will hide in the water. The female frog comes to the tree trunk and lays her eggs in the water. The male frog sings all year, and he may stay near the same place for a long time. The female frog lays her eggs in the hole and the male frog fertilizes them. The female comes back to the hole to lay unfertilized eggs, which the tadpoles eat.
