EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite detail from a plate of pencil sketches and watercolor drawings of British mammals by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson (1872-1912) showcases the intricate features of the Black Rat, scientifically known as Rattus rattus. The rat is a member of the Muridae family, which is part of the larger order Muroidea, and the suborder Myomorpha within the class Mammalia. This placental mammal, also known as the Old World mouse or the common rat, is native to Europe, North Africa, and Asia. The Black Rat is a small, agile rodent with a body length of around 9 inches and a tail length of about the same. Its fur is typically glossy black, although it can vary in color from brown to grey. The rat's ears are large and rounded, and its eyes are small and beady. Its snout is pointed, and its teeth are sharp and constantly growing. This illustration was created during the late 19th century, around 1890-1910, and is a testament to Dr. Wilson's skill as a naturalist and artist. Wilson was a prolific illustrator and writer, and his work was published in numerous scientific journals and books. His meticulous attention to detail and commitment to accuracy made him a respected figure in the scientific community of his time. The Black Rat is an important species in the study of mammalogy, as it is one of the most widely distributed mammals in the world. It is also an important pest, as it can carry diseases such as the bubonic plague and rat-bite fever. Despite its negative impact on human health, the Black Rat plays a crucial role in ecosystems as a predator and scavenger. This beautiful illustration not only showcases the natural history of the Black Rat but also highlights the artistic mastery of Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson. It is a reminder of the rich biodiversity of the natural world and the importance of documenting it for future generations.
