EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite plate features a meticulously rendered illustration of Nyctalus leisleri, the lesser noctule bat, from the collection of pencil sketches and watercolour drawings of British mammals created by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson between 1890 and 1910. Dr. Wilson, a renowned naturalist and explorer, meticulously captured the intricate details of this nocturnal mammal, a member of the Chiroptera order, or bats. The lesser noctule bat, also known as Leisler's bat or the evening bat, is a small microbat belonging to the family Vespertilionidae. It is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. With a wingspan of around 25 centimeters, this eutherian mammal is characterized by its dark brown fur, pointed ears, and a distinctive white patch on its wing membranes. The illustration showcases the lesser noctule bat in flight, its wings outstretched, revealing the intricate vein patterns that enable these creatures to fly. The delicate shading and attention to detail in the drawing bring the lesser noctule to life, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this elusive and fascinating creature. Dr. Wilson's illustrations were produced during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a time when natural history was a burgeoning field, and collecting and documenting the natural world was a source of great fascination and scientific discovery. Wilson's work, along with that of other naturalists of the era, contributed significantly to our understanding of the natural world and continues to inspire appreciation for the intricacies of the natural world today.
