EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a captivating collection of Siphonophorae hydrozoans, a diverse group of jellyfish characterized by their complex colonial structures. The illustration, created by Ernst Haeckel and expertly rendered in chromolithography by Adolf Glitsch, showcases three distinct species: Epibulia ritteriana (1, 2), Cystalia monogastrica (not visible), and Salacella uvaria (3-6). Epibulia ritteriana, also known as the "upside-down jellyfish," is unique for its ability to attach to the seafloor and feed on plankton that comes in contact with its underside. The intricate, bell-shaped structures (1, 2) are home to numerous polyps, which can sting and capture prey. Salacella uvaria, on the other hand, is a polygastric siphonophore with multiple gas-filled bladders (3-6) that help the colony maintain buoyancy and move through the water. The medusae (not visible) of this species are small and transparent, allowing the polyps to remain concealed within the bell-shaped structures. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this chromolithograph serve as a testament to the beauty and complexity of nature. Haeckel's illustrations, inspired by his extensive research and exploration of marine life, continue to captivate and inspire scientists, artists, and enthusiasts alike. This artwork, with its nouveau design elements, is a stunning example of the intersection between science and art.
