EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century engraving depicts two intriguing animals, Macrauchenia patachonica and Auchenia llama, in a detailed and meticulously illustrated composition. Macrauchenia patachonica, the foreground figure, is a representative of the extinct South American order Litopterna, which lived during the Late Oligocene to Early Miocene epochs. With a body shape reminiscent of a camel and a long, flexible neck, Macrauchenia was an even-toed ungulate, belonging to the Artiodactyla order and the Camelidae family. In the background, we find Auchenia llama, a species of llama that once roamed the grasslands of South America. Auchenia, an artiodactyl and a member of the Lama glama family, is the closest living relative to Macrauchenia. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the anatomy of these animals, with a particular focus on the cervical vertebrae of Macrauchenia. The engraving is a testament to the meticulous observation and dedication of naturalists during the 19th century, as Charles Darwin, aboard the HMS Beagle, documented and studied the diverse fauna of South America. This illustration, likely produced based on Darwin's findings, serves as an essential record of the natural history of these animals and offers a captivating window into the past.
