EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, created by Fournier after an illustration by Meunier for Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle (Universal Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris in 1849, showcases two intriguing creatures of the tropical forests of Southeast Asia: the Spectral Bat, Vampyrum spectrum, and the Sunda Flying Lemur, Galeopterus variegatus. The Spectral Bat, also known as the Ghost Bat or the Large Flying Fox, is a large species of bat with a wingspan that can reach up to 1.5 meters. Its common name derives from its pale, almost translucent, wings, which give it an ethereal appearance. The bat's body is covered in short, dense fur, with a coat that ranges from dark brown to black. They are omnivorous, feeding on fruits, flowers, nectar, and insects. The Sunda Flying Lemur, also known as the Colugo or the Sunda Colugo, is not a true lemur but rather a primate belonging to the family Colugidae. This agile creature has a prehensile tail and membranes that extend from its limbs to its body, allowing it to glide through the forest canopy. Its fur is a mix of gray, brown, and white, with a distinctive white patch on its chest. They are primarily herbivorous, feeding on leaves, shoots, and fruits. These two fascinating creatures, the Spectral Bat and the Sunda Flying Lemur, coexist in the dense forests of Southeast Asia, each displaying unique adaptations that enable them to thrive in their environment. This beautiful handcolored engraving serves as a testament to the rich biodiversity of the region and the intrigue that natural history continues to hold for us.
