EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving by Johann Carl Bock, published in Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur (The Butterflies and Moths in Representations according to Nature) in 1786, showcases an intriguing assembly of Lepidoptera species. The image comprises six different moths, each with unique characteristics that reflect their diverse habitats and life cycles. The first five moths belong to the genus Clostera, specifically Clostera anastomosis. These moths are commonly known as the Argenteus or Muslin Footmen due to their silvery-white wings and distinctive foot-like projections on their hindwings. The fifth Clostera moth is shown in a more detailed view, revealing its intricate wing patterns and antennae. The sixth moth in the illustration is Nudaria mundana, also known as the Flame or Brocade Archer. This moth is easily identified by its orange-red wings adorned with black spots, resembling a flaming arrow. Its name derives from the black dots on its wings, which resemble archers' darts. Two additional moths are depicted in the background, though their species are not explicitly identified in the title. The one on the left appears to be Phalaena donasa, with its distinctive white wings and black spots. The other moth, on the right, is likely Phalaena argentina, known for its silver-gray wings and black markings. This illustration not only highlights the beauty of these moths but also showcases the meticulous detail and artistry of 18th-century entomological illustrations. The intricate patterns and colors of these Lepidoptera species are brought to life through the hand-coloring process, offering a glimpse into the natural world and the wonders of insect metamorphosis.
