EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor painting by Sydney Parkinson captures the intriguing form of the Caribbean Ocellated Moray, Gymnothorax ocellatus, during Captain James Cook's historic first voyage to explore the southern continent from 1768 to 1771. The Moray Eel, a long, slender, bony fish belonging to the Anguilliformes order and the Muraenidae family, is depicted with its distinctive black edges and ocellated markings, making it a captivating subject for Parkinson's artistic talents. During Cook's expedition, the crew encountered an abundance of diverse marine life in the Caribbean, including this fascinating eel species. The Moray Eel's elongated body and unique appearance were no doubt intriguing to the explorers, as they navigated uncharted waters and documented new discoveries. This illustration, a testament to the natural history of the time, showcases the Caribbean Ocellated Moray's belly as it lies on the ocean floor, blending in with the sandy seabed. The eel's keen senses, including its acute sense of smell and ability to detect electrical signals, allow it to ambush its prey. As a significant figure in the Age of Discovery, Captain Cook's voyages expanded the world's knowledge of the natural world and contributed to the development of scientific illustration as an essential tool for recording new species. Parkinson's detailed and accurate watercolor painting of the Caribbean Ocellated Moray remains an important historical record and a beautiful work of art.
