EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 189 from the Fleming Indian Drawings Collection, housed in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, presents a captivating depiction of the Erythrina corallodendron, commonly known as the Coral Bean Tree (Fabaceae, Erythrinaceae). This exquisite botanical drawing, created in the 19th century, offers a detailed and accurate representation of this remarkable plant. The Coral Bean Tree is an angiosperm, belonging to the order Fabales and the family Fabaceae. It is a member of the subclass Rosid and the order Eudicotyledons, and is characterized by its distinctive, bright red seeds that resemble coral. The tree is native to Central and South America and is known for its vibrant, pinnate leaves and clusters of pink, red, or yellow flowers. The Coral Bean Tree is also of particular interest to the scientific community due to its relationship to the Coelenterata, a phylum of animals that includes corals and jellyfish. The seeds of the Coral Bean Tree contain the alkaloid cardenolides, which are toxic to many animals, including some mammals. These toxins are similar in structure to those found in the tissues of some coelenterates, leading scientists to believe that the Coral Bean Tree may have evolved these toxins as a defense mechanism against herbivores. The botanical drawing in Plate 189 was created by Dr. John Fleming, a renowned botanist and artist of the 19th century. Fleming's extensive travels throughout India and his meticulous attention to detail are evident in this beautiful and intricate drawing. The Coral Bean Tree, with its striking appearance and unique biological features, continues to captivate scientists and nature enthusiasts alike, making this botanical drawing a valuable addition to the Fleming Indian Drawings Collection and the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London.
