EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 100 from the John Reeves Collection of Zoological Drawings from Canton, China (1774-1856) is an intriguing and captivating illustration showcasing a diverse array of Asian fauna. John Reeves (1774-1856), a British artist and naturalist, meticulously documented various species during his tenure in Canton, China, creating this extensive collection of over 1,000 drawings. This particular plate, numbered 100, is a visual feast for those interested in invertebrates, specifically insects and arthropods. The central focus of the illustration is a stunning Lepidopteran caterpillar, its vibrant colors and intricate patterns a testament to the beauty and complexity of the insect world. The caterpillar, with its elongated body and distinct head, is surrounded by a myriad of other fascinating creatures. To the left, a Lacertilia lizard, characterized by its diapsid body structure and hexapod limbs, is depicted in a lifelike pose. The lizard's scaly skin and keen eyes convey a sense of alertness and agility. Nearby, a variety of hexapod arthropods, including insects and other invertebrates, add to the rich tapestry of biodiversity presented in this illustration. The John Reeves Collection is a valuable historical resource, providing a window into the natural world of 19th century Asia. Plate 100, with its exquisite attention to detail and accurate representation of these diverse species, is a testament to Reeves' dedication and skill as a naturalist and artist.
