EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor painting is a captivating depiction of the Drepanis pacifica, also known as the Hawaii mamo or hoohoo, created by the skilled hand of William Ellis during Captain James Cook's third voyage (1776-1780). The illustration is part of a larger collection of sketches of mammals, birds, and fish made during this historic expedition. Captain Cook's voyages of discovery opened up new frontiers of knowledge about the natural world, and Ellis' illustrations provide invaluable insights into the avian fauna of the Pacific Islands, including the Drepanis pacifica. This bird, a member of the Drepanidinae family and the Drepanididae order, is native to the Hawaiian Islands. The Drepanis pacifica is easily recognizable by its distinctive curved bill and vibrant plumage. The male bird is depicted in this illustration with a bright red face and chest, while the female has a more subdued coloration. The branch in the background provides a sense of scale and habitat, while the detailed anatomy of the bird's bill and body showcase Ellis' meticulous observational skills. The geomorphology of the Hawaiian Islands, with their volcanic origins and diverse ecosystems, provided a rich environment for the evolution of unique bird species, such as the Drepanis pacifica. This illustration offers a glimpse into the natural history of this remarkable bird and the broader biosphere of the Pacific Islands during the 18th century. The Drepanis pacifica, also known as the Hawaii mamo or hoohoo, is now considered extinct, making this illustration an important historical record of a bird that once graced the Hawaiian Islands with its presence.
