EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 26 from the Collection of Jamaican Lepidoptera, 1889-1898, showcases two intriguing and vibrantly colored creatures of the Caribbean: the Zebra Mosaic and the Stinky Leafwing, depicted in a stunning watercolor painting by Lady Edith Blake in 1892. Lady Edith Blake (1845-1926), an accomplished British artist, captured the essence of these captivating arthropods with remarkable detail and precision. The Zebra Mosaic, a mosaic butterfly (Colobura dirce), displays its unique, intricately patterned wings that resemble a zebra's stripes, while the Stinky Leafwing, or the Greater Antillean Sphinx Moth (Historis odius), exhibits a striking green and orange body with large, translucent wings adorned with black spots. The Plate, held in the Library and Archives, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the Caribbean and the dedication of Lady Edith Blake to documenting its natural wonders. The painting is an exquisite example of the entomological illustrations of the time, capturing the beauty and intricacy of these invertebrates, which belong to the orders Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) and Hymenoptera (bees, ants, and wasps). The Zebra Mosaic and Stinky Leafwing caterpillars, often overlooked in comparison to their adult forms, are equally fascinating. The Zebra Mosaic caterpillar is a four-footed caterpillar, while the Stinky Leafwing caterpillar, also known as a brush-footed butterfly or a hexapod, has six legs. These caterpillars are essential stages in the life cycle of these beautiful creatures, and their inclusion in this plate highlights the comprehensive nature of Lady Edith Blake's work. This exquisite watercolor painting, Plate 26, is a valuable historical record of the natural world and a testament to Lady Edith Blake's artistic talent. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of nature and the beauty of the Caribbean's diverse inhabitants.
