EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is a rare and intriguing glimpse into the natural history of the Cottonmouth Snake, Agkistrodon piscivorus, as depicted in Drawing 61 (Ewan 50) from the Botanical and Zoological Drawings (1756-1788) by the renowned American naturalist, William Bartram. The drawing, which is part of a larger collection, offers a detailed and accurate representation of this fascinating reptile, showcasing its anatomical features and distinctive characteristics. The Cottonmouth Snake, also known as the Water Moccasin, is a venomous, carnivorous snake native to the eastern United States. This snake derives its common name from the white lining of its mouth, which it displays when threatened, giving the appearance of a cotton ball. The snake's forked tongue, a diagnostic feature of all snakes, is clearly visible in this illustration, as is its triangular head, large eyes, and powerful jaws. This drawing is significant as it was produced during the 18th century, a time when the study of natural history was in its infancy. Bartram's meticulous observations and illustrations played a crucial role in advancing the field of herpetology, and this particular drawing is an important contribution to the scientific record of the Cottonmouth Snake. The drawing is executed in monochrome, with fine lines and shading that bring the snake to life. The snake is depicted against a plain background, allowing the viewer to focus on its anatomy and details. The illustration is a testament to Bartram's skill as an artist and his deep understanding of the natural world. The Cottonmouth Snake belongs to the order Squamata, which includes lizards and snakes, and the family Crotalinae, which includes venomous snakes. It is a diapsid, meaning it has two openings in the skull for the eyes and nostrils, and a lepidosaur, which means it has scales. This illustration is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in herpetology, natural history, or the history of science.
