EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph, taken from John O. Westwood's new edition of Dru Drury's Illustrations of Exotic Entomology published by Bohn in London in 1837, showcases an enchanting assembly of hairstreak butterflies. The two-tailed pasha butterfly, Charaxes jasius (1), graces the left side of the image, its vibrant orange and black wings adorned with intricate white patterns. The Drurys hairstreak, Strymon acis (2), is depicted in the center, its delicate wings featuring a striking black band and a row of silver dots. The silver-banded hairstreak, Chlorostrymon simaethis (3), is displayed on the right, its wings boasting a beautiful silver band and black borders. Hairstreak butterflies, belonging to the family Lycaenidae, are known for their distinctive long tails on their hindwings, which help them camouflage themselves from predators. This intriguing collection of hairstreak species, captured in exquisite detail, is a testament to the captivating beauty and diversity of the Lepidoptera order. The meticulous handcolouring adds a layer of artistry to the scientific illustration, making it a true masterpiece of the 19th century. John O. Westwood, a renowned English entomologist and illustrator, was instrumental in the production of this impressive work, which showcases a wide range of exotic insects. The Illustrations of Exotic Entomology was a significant contribution to the scientific community, providing a detailed record of various insect species for both scientific and aesthetic appreciation.
