EDITORS COMMENTS
This line drawing, titled "Pursuit of Flying Fish by Dolphins & Birds," is an exquisite illustration taken from "The Ocean" by Philip Henry Gosse, published in 1846. The image showcases the dynamic interplay between various aquatic species, including dolphins and birds, in their natural habitat. Dolphins, represented by the Delphinidae family, are highly intelligent and social marine mammals, known for their distinctive curved dorsal fins and streamlined bodies. They are further categorized as Odontoceti, or toothed whales, and Cetacea, the larger group of whales, porpoises, and dolphins. Flying fish, depicted in mid-flight, belong to the Exocoetidae family and the larger order Beloniformes. These fascinating bony fish are renowned for their ability to leap out of the water, reducing their surface area and minimizing the risk of being preyed upon. Their pectoral fins act as wings, allowing them to glide through the air for short distances. Birds, such as the frigatebirds and terns, are also depicted in the illustration, gracefully diving into the water to catch the flying fish. These birds are well-adapted to life at sea, with webbed feet and streamlined bodies that enable them to swim efficiently. This stunning illustration, created during the 19th century by the renowned naturalist and author Philip Henry Gosse, provides a fascinating glimpse into the intricate relationships between various marine species. It is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the natural world and serves as an inspiration for future generations to appreciate and protect our oceans and their inhabitants.
