EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock for Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur, published in Erlangen in 1786, showcases an intriguing assembly of moths, some of which are identified as Drymonia dodonaea, Bombyx trimacula, Phalaena bombyx roboris, Euchoeca spp., Nebulata spp., Dusky Marbled Brown, Gluphisia crenata, Rusina rusina, Ferruginea, and Obliterata. The Drymonia dodonaea moth, also known as the Dingy or Dusky Shell Moth, is characterized by its rustic appearance with a brown and marbled body and wings. The Bombyx species, Bombyx trimacula and Bombyx roboris, are silkworm moths, recognized for their economic importance in the production of silk. The other moths displayed in this engraving are less identified, but their intricate patterns and delicate structures are a testament to the natural beauty of the Lepidoptera order. The metamorphosis of these insects from caterpillars to moths is a fascinating aspect of the insect world, and this engraving offers a glimpse into the diversity and complexity of the moth species that were known during the late 18th century. The intricacy and detail of this hand-colored copperplate engraving are a testament to the skill and artistry of Johann Carl Bock and the scientific dedication of Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers. This work represents an essential contribution to the field of entomology and continues to be a valuable resource for researchers and enthusiasts alike.
