EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Two Enchanting Species of Bats: The Brown Long-Eared Bat (Plecotus auritus) and the Yellow-Winged Bat (Lavia frons)" 2. Description: This handcolored engraving, created by Fournier after an illustration by Oudart, showcases two fascinating bat species: the Brown Long-Eared Bat (Plecotus auritus) and the Yellow-Winged Bat (Lavia frons). The image, taken from Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle (Universal Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris in 1849, offers a detailed and intricate representation of these two unique creatures. 3. Brown Long-Eared Bat (Plecotus auritus): The Brown Long-Eared Bat, also known as the Common Long-Eared Bat, is a small, agile mammal native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. As depicted in the engraving, this bat is characterized by its long, brown ears, which are not only used for echolocation but also for temperature regulation. Its fur is typically brown or gray, and it has a wingspan of around 25 cm. 4. Yellow-Winged Bat (Lavia frons): The Yellow-Winged Bat, or Megaderma frons, is a distinct bat species native to Africa. This bat is easily recognizable by its striking yellow wings, which are actually the exposed membranes between its elongated fingers. The body of the Yellow-Winged Bat is covered in short, dark fur, and it has a wingspan of approximately 35 cm. 5. The intricate details and lifelike quality of this handcolored engraving serve as a testament to the skill and artistry of the illustrator, Oudart, and the engraver, Fournier. Their work not only captures the physical attributes of these bats but also conveys their unique charm and allure. This image offers a glimpse into the natural world of the late 1800s and serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the diversity of the animal kingdom.
