EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Robert Thompson showcases the remarkable camouflage abilities of the Peppered moth (Biston betularia) amidst a bed of lichens in Banbridge, County Down, Northern Ireland. The intricate details captured in this image offer a glimpse into the fascinating world of wildlife and arthropods. The Peppered moth, belonging to the family Geometridae, is an insect species known for its ability to blend seamlessly with its surroundings. In this photograph, we witness nature's artistry as the moth effortlessly merges with the lichens that adorn its habitat. Its mottled wings perfectly mimic the patterns and colors of these plant-like organisms, making it nearly invisible to predators. As we delve deeper into this image, we are reminded of the incredible diversity found within our natural world. The delicate structure and graceful flight characteristic of moths are beautifully portrayed here. This particular species is commonly referred to as "pepper and salt geometer" or "pepper and salt moth" owing to its speckled appearance resembling grains on fabric. Banbridge's lush environment provides an ideal backdrop for such enchanting encounters between insects and their surroundings. Located in County Down within Northern Ireland's picturesque landscapes, this region offers a haven for numerous flora and fauna species. Robert Thompson's skillful photography captures not only a mesmerizing moment but also highlights important aspects of ecology such as adaptation through camouflage.
