EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by the skilled artist Johann Carl Bock in 1786, showcases three intriguing moth species: the Three-humped Prominent (Notodonta tritophus), the Olive Moth (Prays oleae), and the Turnip Moth (Agrotis segetum). Each moth is depicted in stunning detail, revealing their unique features and distinctive markings. The Three-humped Prominent, also known as the Humped Prominent or the Three-humped Cossus, is characterized by its three prominent humps along its forewings. These humps are actually folds in the wing, which can be raised and lowered to display bright orange markings as a defense mechanism. The Olive Moth, also known as the Olive Oil Moth or the Leafroller Moth, is easily recognizable by its olive green coloration and distinctive white stripes. The Turnip Moth, also known as the Goatmoth or the Cabbage Moth, is a common pest in agricultural areas, with its wings adorned with intricate patterns of brown, gray, and white. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the Lepidoptera order, which includes both butterflies and moths. The intricate process of hand-coloring each print added an additional layer of artistry to the already impressive engraving technique. The various stages of the insect's life cycle, from pupa to larva to caterpillar to adult, continue to fascinate scientists and naturalists alike, making this an invaluable addition to any entomology collection.
