EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases the Carollia brevicauda, also known as the silky short-tailed bat or the Bahia short-tailed myotis. The bat is a member of the family Phyllostomatidae, subfamily Carolliinae, and order Chiroptera, commonly referred to as the leaf-nosed bats. This illustration was created by the renowned English naturalist and illustrator John Gould in 1838-1839 for The Zoology of the Voyage of H.M.S. Beagle, Vol 1, Part 2 Mammalia. The Carollia brevicauda is native to South America, specifically in the regions of Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay. This bat is characterized by its short, silky fur, which is particularly dense on the underparts, and its relatively large, leaf-shaped nose leaf. The bat's head is small and round, with large, expressive eyes and prominent ears. This illustration was produced during the historic voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle, led by Charles Darwin and Captain Robert FitzRoy. Darwin's groundbreaking discoveries during this voyage laid the foundation for his theory of evolution by natural selection, which would be published in his seminal work, On the Origin of Species, in 1859. The Carollia brevicauda is a microchiropteran bat, meaning it is capable of echolocation and uses this ability to navigate and locate prey in the dark. It feeds primarily on fruit and nectar, making it an important pollinator in its ecosystem. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the Carollia brevicauda and the scientific discoveries made during the Voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle. Its intricate details and accurate anatomical representation make it a valuable addition to any collection of natural history art or scientific literature.
