EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving by Johann Carl Bock, published in Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur in 1786, showcases two exquisite moths, the Epatolmis caesarea and Penthophera morio. The Epatolmis caesarea, also known as the Hairy Sweep or Canephora hirsuta, is depicted on the left side of the image. This moth is characterized by its brown and orange wings, covered in fine hairs, and a distinctive white marking on its forewings. The Penthophera morio, or the Hairy Detritivora, is shown on the right side of the print. Its wings are adorned with intricate patterns of black and orange, and its body is covered in dense, grayish-brown hairs. Both moths belong to the Lepidoptera order, specifically the families Eupterotidae and Lasiocampidae, respectively. The metamorphosis of these moths from caterpillars to adults is a fascinating process, involving a pupa stage where the insect transforms into its adult form. The intricacies of their wings and body structures are beautifully captured in this detailed engraving, providing a glimpse into the natural world of moths during the late 18th century. The Epatolmis caesarea and Penthophera morio are just two examples of the vast diversity of moth species. Other moths depicted in the print include the Phalaena luctifera, Phalaena morio, Epichnopterix plumella, Phalaena vestita, Phalaena atra, and Phalaena pulla. This engraving is an essential addition to any collection focused on entomology, butterflies, or natural history, offering a captivating look into the world of moths and their intricate beauty.
