EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 463, featuring the Coleophora frischella, commonly known as Frisch's Case-moth. The moth is part of the Lepidoptera order, which includes butterflies and moths. The intricately detailed illustration, produced between 1824 and 1839, was created by the skilled hand of John Curtis, FLS. The Coleophora frischella is depicted resting on the leaf of Isolepis setacea, also known as Least Club-rush or Scirpus or Isoleptis setaceus. This aquatic plant is native to wetlands and marshes, providing the perfect habitat for various aquatic insects. The Coleophora frischella is a small moth, with a wingspan of around 12-15mm. The moth's larvae are known for constructing silken cases, which they use as a protective shelter. These cases are often found on the stems and leaves of their host plants, such as the Isolepis setacea. The illustration showcases the delicate beauty of both the moth and the plant, providing a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the natural world during the 19th century. The intricate details of the moth's wings and the textured surface of the plant's leaves are captured with remarkable precision, making this a true masterpiece of natural history illustration.
