Great Spotted Kiwi (Roa antiquata, formerly known as Apteryx hastii): A Striking Illustration from the Historic 'A History of the Birds of New Zealand' This watercolor painting depicts the Great Spotted Kiwi, also known as Roa antiquata or Apteryx hastii, a unique and iconic bird species endemic to New Zealand. The artwork was created by the renowned Dutch natural history illustrator, JG Keulemans, for Sir Walter Lawry Buller's comprehensive work, 'A History of the Birds of New Zealand.' The illustration is taken from Volume 4, Plate 54, dated 1888. The Great Spotted Kiwi is a member of the Apterygidae family, which belongs to the Apterygiformes order and the class Aves. This nocturnal, flightless bird is characterized by its distinctive plumage, large, powerful legs, and long, pointed beak. With its brownish-black feathers adorned with white spots and bars, the Great Spotted Kiwi is an intriguing blend of cryptic colors that helps it blend into its forest habitat. This exquisite watercolor painting not only showcases the physical attributes of this fascinating bird but also transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the natural history of New Zealand during the late 19th century. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colors used by Keulemans bring the Great Spotted Kiwi to life, making this illustration a valuable historical record and an essential addition to any collection focused on ornithology, natural history, or New Zealand's unique biodiversity.
