EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor drawing depicts the Crested Morwong, Cheilodactylus gibbosus, a native fish species found in the waters of King Georges Sound, Western Australia, and its neighboring regions. The illustration is part of a collection of 67 original watercolor drawings of Mammals, Reptiles, and Fish, accompanied by manuscript notes by Robert Neill, published between 1839 and 142. The Crested Morwong, also known as the Purple Morwong or the Crested Morwong Wrasse, is a member of the Cheilodactylidae family, order Perciformes, class Actinopterygii, and phylum Osteichthyes. This bony fish is characterized by its distinctive crest, purple-grey coloration, and elongated dorsal fin. The Indigenous peoples of Australia, including the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, have a rich cultural connection to the natural world and the fish that inhabit their waters. The Crested Morwong holds significance in the traditional ecological knowledge of these communities, and its depiction in this historical collection reflects the importance of documenting and preserving the natural heritage of the region. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this watercolor illustration offer a glimpse into the natural history of Western Australia and the Indigenous peoples' relationship with the land and sea. The manuscript notes by Robert Neill provide valuable information about the fish's physical characteristics, habitat, and distribution, making this illustration a valuable resource for scientific research and conservation efforts.
