EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur (The Butterflies in Representations according to Nature), published in Erlangen in 1786, showcases an intriguing assembly of various moths and their life stages. The image includes the Passenger moth (Dysgonia algira), identified by its distinctive white spots and long, slender body. Two Dun-bars (Cosmia trapezina) are depicted, each with a pale shoulder and a darker band across their wings. The Soothsayer or Double Dart moth (Graphiphora augur) is easily identified by its unique wing pattern, featuring a prominent black spot at the center of each wing. The larvae of these moths are also illustrated, providing a glimpse into their earlier stages of development. The Passenger moth larvae are characterized by their long, slender bodies and distinct head capsules. The Dun-bar larvae exhibit a striking resemblance to their adult form, with a pale shoulder and a darker band. Additional moths featured in this engraving include the Acontia lucida, Tyta luctuosa, Druid moth (Aedia funesta), Funesta noctua, Solaris, and Funestra. This illustration not only showcases the beauty and diversity of these Lepidoptera species but also highlights the intricate process of hand-coloring copperplate engravings during the 18th century. The metamorphosis of these insects from caterpillar to pupa and eventually to their adult form is a testament to the wonders of nature that continue to fascinate and inspire us today.
