EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Glimpse into the Past: The Critically Endangered European Eel and Turbot" This exquisite handcolored engraving, created by Fournier after an illustration by Oudart for Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle (Universal Dictionary of Natural History) published in Paris in 1849, offers a captivating glimpse into the natural world of the European eel and turbot. The European eel, scientifically known as Anguilla anguilla (Anguilla europea), is depicted on the left side of the image, while the turbot, or Scophthalmus maximus (Passer maximus), is shown on the right. The European eel, a critically endangered species, is characterized by its long, slender body and serpentine form. These eels are born in the Sargasso Sea in the Atlantic Ocean and embark on an incredible journey to freshwater habitats to grow and mature. They then return to the Sargasso Sea to spawn, making their life cycle one of the most remarkable in the animal kingdom. The turbot, a flatfish species, is shown with its distinctive flat body and large eyes on the upper side. Once abundant in European waters, turbot populations have declined significantly due to overfishing and habitat loss. They are a valuable commercial fish, making their conservation a critical concern. This stunning engraving not only serves as a testament to the natural beauty of these two species but also highlights the importance of preserving biodiversity and understanding the natural history of our planet. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the European eel and turbot to life, inviting us to appreciate their unique features and the roles they play in the complex web of marine ecosystems.
