"Dive into the fascinating world of dog fish. 🐶🐟 From ancient Roman seafood mosaics to modern-day illustrations, these creatures have captured our attention throughout history. The Greater Spotted Dogfish with its remarkable teeth and jaws continuously replaced from behind is a true marvel of nature found in the North Sea and Mediterranean. Take a closer look at the small-spotted catshark, beautifully illustrated in a side view, showcasing its unique features like never before. Venturing into European seas, we encounter the Lesser Spotted Dogfish, an intriguing species that has intrigued sailors for centuries. Just ask Captain Boyton who had an unforgettable encounter with a Dog-Fish in the Straits of Messina as depicted in an engraving. And let's not forget about their eggs - come explore their comparative sizes through another captivating engraving. One particularly vulnerable member of this family is the spiny dogfish or picked shark, known for its distinctive appearance and handcolored copperplate engravings dating back to 1802-1808 by Edward Donovan. Moving forward in time, witness these marvelous creatures brought to life through color lithographs featured in "The Aquarium" published in 1873. Traveling across continents brings us face-to-face with cultural depictions such as the Haida Dog-fish portrayed vividly in a color lithograph. Meanwhile, Papua New Guinea introduces us to Greeneye/Shortspine Spurdog - showcasing the diversity within this group. Whether you're fascinated by historical engravings or captivated by contemporary illustrations, there's no denying that dog fish continue to intrigue us with their beauty and mystery.
