EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon," showcases two fascinating species of malkohas: the Yellow-billed Malkoha (Phaenicophaeus calyorhynchus) and the Red-faced Malkoha (Phaenicophaeus pyrrhocephalus). The Yellow-billed Malkoha, also known as the Malabar Malkoha, is native to the Indian subcontinent and is characterized by its distinctive yellow bill and long, dark plumage. The Red-faced Malkoha, or the Red-faced Malabar Malkoha, is found in Sri Lanka and southern India, and is easily identified by its bright red face and orange-yellow bill. Malkohas are part of the kingfisher family, and are known for their distinctive, raucous calls and their long, decurved bills, which they use to probe the ground for prey. They are primarily insectivorous, but also consume small reptiles, amphibians, and crustaceans. The intricate detail and vibrant colors in this engraving are a testament to the skill of the engraver and the high-quality production techniques of the time. The illustration is a valuable addition to any collection of zoological or ornithological works, providing a detailed and accurate record of these two beautiful and intriguing birds. Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon" was published in Paris in 1838, and was intended as a supplement to the works of Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, a prominent French naturalist and encyclopedist. The work was widely regarded for its high-quality illustrations and its contributions to the scientific understanding of the natural world.
