EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving by Johann Carl Bock, after Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur, showcases a captivating collection of gold spangle and other moths. The intricately detailed illustration features six distinct species: the Gold Spangle or Autographa bractea (1, 2), the Silver-striped or Euchalcia modestoides (3, 4), the Cinnabar or Lamprotes c-aureum (5), and the Gold-dust or Panchrysia deaurata (6). The Gold Spangle moths are characterized by their golden-yellow wings adorned with black veins and spots. The Silver-striped moths exhibit silver-grey wings with black stripes and a distinctive pattern of black spots on their forewings. The Cinnabar moth, also known as the Five-spotted Hawk-moth, boasts bright red and black wings with five prominent white spots. Lastly, the Gold-dust moths are named for their golden-yellow scales, which cover their wings and body. This engraving is a testament to the meticulous work of the entomological illustrators of the 18th century. The intricate details reveal the various stages of these moths' life cycles, from their pupa and larva stages to their adult forms. The illustration also showcases the beauty and diversity of the Lepidoptera order, which includes both butterflies and moths. The Gold Spangle and other moths depicted in this engraving are essential components of various ecosystems, playing crucial roles in pollination and food sources for other organisms. Their intricate designs and unique characteristics continue to fascinate scientists and naturalists alike, making this engraving a valuable addition to any collection of entomological or scientific artwork.
