EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely detailed hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Double-marked Salmon Carp, Steindachnerina binotata, a striking tropical fish native to the waters of South America. The engraving is taken from Robert Schomburgk's "Fishes of Guiana," which was published as part of Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ichthyology, in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1841. The illustration was produced by the skilled hand of James Stewart, with the engraving expertly executed by W.H. Lizars. The Double-marked Salmon Carp is also known by its scientific name, Prochilodus binotatus. It is a popular species among aquarists for its unique appearance, with distinctive black markings on its sides and a silver body. This fish is a member of the family Prochilodontidae, which is found primarily in the Neotropical region of South America. The Double-marked Salmon Carp is an important species in its natural habitat, playing a role in the food chain as both a predator and prey. It is also an essential food source for many larger fish and birds. The engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of this beautiful and intriguing fish, capturing its essence in meticulous detail for future generations to appreciate. The intricacy of the engraving process is evident in the fine lines and delicate shading, which bring the fish to life on the page. The hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy, making this a truly stunning work of art as well as a valuable scientific record. This engraving is a testament to the skill and dedication of the artists and scientists involved in documenting the natural world over 180 years ago.
