EDITORS COMMENTS
This image dates back to the Victorian era, showcasing the intricately marked Pholis gunnellus, also known as the Rock Gunnel or Butterfish. The Pholis gunnellus is a small, eel-like fish belonging to the Pholidae family, native to the North Atlantic and Arctic seas. With its elongated body and distinctive markings, this species is a fascinating subject for natural history enthusiasts. The Rock Gunner's body is adorned with a series of dark spots, arranged in a seemingly random pattern, creating a mesmerizing visual effect. The fish's most notable feature, however, are its nine prominent, round, dark eyes, which are evenly spaced along the sides of its body. These eyes help the Rock Gunner navigate in the dark depths of the ocean, providing it with excellent vision and camouflage. The photograph, taken in 1863, captures the essence of the natural world during the 1860s. The intricate details of the Rock Gunner's body and its striking markings are beautifully preserved, offering a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the marine environment. This photograph is not only a testament to the wonders of nature but also a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world for future generations. The Pholis gunnellus, with its unique features and captivating appearance, continues to fascinate scientists and nature lovers alike. This photograph, taken over a century and a half ago, remains an important historical record of this remarkable species and the natural world of the past.
