EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 80 of the John Reeves Collection of Zoological Drawings from Canton, China, presents a captivating illustration of an agile and bushy mammal native to Asia. Dated between 1774 and 1856, this nineteenth-century plate is a testament to the remarkable discoveries made during the era of European exploration. John Reeves, a British artist and naturalist, meticulously documented various species of animals and plants during his time in China. This plate, in particular, showcases an unidentified mammal, likely an eutherian or placental mammal from the order Epitheria. The mammal is depicted perched on a branch, its fluffy fur contrasting against the lush greenery of its arboreal habitat. The mammal's features suggest an agile and nimble creature, well-adapted to life in the trees. Its bushy tail and pointed ears are reminiscent of other Asian mammals, such as the lantern-eared bat or the Asian palm civet. However, its exact identity remains a mystery, making this plate an intriguing addition to the Reeves Collection. The intricate details and lifelike quality of the illustration are a testament to Reeves' skill as an artist and naturalist. The plate provides a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of Asia during the nineteenth century, a time when European exploration and documentation of the natural world was at its height. Plate 80 serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and studying the natural world, and the role that art and illustration play in documenting and understanding the wonders of the natural world.
