EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely detailed hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the striking beauty of the Wood Tiger Moth, Parasemia plantaginis. The moth, also known by its scientific synonyms Phalaena plantaginis and Lymantria monacha, is a member of the Lepidoptera order, specifically the Arctiidae family. The image, created by the skilled hand of Johann Carl Bock in 1786, is part of Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur. The Wood Tiger Moth is easily recognizable by its distinctive black and orange markings, which resemble the stripes of a tiger. The moth's wingspan can reach up to 7 centimeters, and its body is covered in fine hairs. The Wood Tiger Moth is native to Europe and Asia, and can be found in wooded areas, gardens, and meadows. The life cycle of the Wood Tiger Moth involves complete metamorphosis, with four distinct stages: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult. The larva feeds on various leaves, while the pupa undergoes transformation into the adult moth. The Wood Tiger Moth is an important food source for many animals, including birds and insectivorous bats. This image of the Wood Tiger Moth is a testament to the intricate beauty of the natural world and the artistry of the past. The meticulous detail and vibrant colors bring the moth to life, inviting us to appreciate the wonder and diversity of the insect kingdom.
