EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 7 from Dissertatio de Generatione et Metamorphosibus Insectorum Surinamensium, published in 1726, is a captivating illustration of the intricate relationship between insects and the flora of Surinam, as depicted by the renowned naturalists Maria Sibylla Merian and Johanna Helena Herolt. This exquisite print showcases a variety of insects, primarily butterflies, in various stages of their life cycle, interacting with a lush cherry tree laden with ripe berries. Merian (1647-1717), a German-born artist and scientist, is celebrated for her groundbreaking work in entomology and botany. She spent several years in Surinam, then a Dutch colony in South America, studying the local fauna and flora. Herolt (1668-1773), a skilled engraver, collaborated with Merian to produce these stunning and accurate illustrations. The plate features an array of arthropods, including several species of brush-footed butterflies, which are part of the Fabidae family. The butterflies are depicted in various stages of their metamorphosis, from caterpillars to pupae to adults. The illustration also includes several eudicots, or flowering plants, such as the amygdalae and amygdaloideae, which are part of the Rosid clade. These plants are particularly noteworthy for their importance in the food source for the caterpillars and the nectar for the adult butterflies. The intricate details of the insects and the botanical specimens are rendered with exceptional precision and beauty, making this plate a testament to the natural wonders of Surinam and the remarkable collaboration between Merian and Herolt. This plate is an essential contribution to the fields of entomology, botany, and the natural sciences, and remains a source of inspiration and fascination for researchers and enthusiasts alike.
