EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Plee Jr. after an original illustration by Jean-Gabriel Pretre, showcases three intriguing marine species: the Bandtail Puffer (Sphoeroides spengleri), Sargassum Pipefish (Syngnathus typhle), and Greater Pipefish (Syngnathus acus). Each fish is depicted in exquisite detail, revealing their unique characteristics. The Bandtail Puffer, also known as Spengler's Puffer or Spheroid Puffer, is a small, round, and colorful pufferfish, with a distinctive banded tail. This species is native to the western Atlantic Ocean and is known for its ability to puff up when threatened. The Sargassum Pipefish, also called the Tubercule Pipefish or the Trompette Pipefish, is a small, elongated fish with a bulbous head and a long, slender body. It is named for its association with Sargassum seaweed, which it uses for camouflage. The Sargassum Pipefish is a master of disguise, with its body shape and coloration perfectly mimicking the seaweed it inhabits. The Greater Pipefish, also known as the Longsnout Pipefish or the Longnose Pipefish, is a larger pipefish species with a long, slender body and a long, pointed snout. It is found in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and, like its smaller counterparts, is an expert at camouflage. This stunning engraving, taken from Bernard Germain de Lacepede's Natural History of Oviparous Quadrupeds, Snakes, Fish and Cetaceans, published in Paris in 1825, is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the marine world and the skill of the artists and engravers of the time.
