EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 667, featuring the Lepidopteran species Ennomos angularia, also known as Ennomos quercaria, or the Clouded August Thorn. The butterfly, with its intricately patterned wings, is depicted in flight above a Tilia europaea, or European Linden tree, which provides the perfect backdrop for this stunning specimen. Dated between 1824 and 1839, this plate is a remarkable contribution to the field of entomology during the 19th century. The work was produced by renowned naturalist and illustrator John Curtis, FLS, who dedicated his career to documenting the diverse insect life of Britain. The Clouded August Thorn is a member of the family Nolidae, and its presence in this plate is marked with some doubt, as its distribution in Britain is not definitively established. Nonetheless, the meticulous detail in the illustration showcases the beauty and complexity of this enigmatic creature. The plate itself is a testament to the painstaking process of documenting natural history during the 1800s. The intricate line work and vibrant watercolor techniques used by Curtis and his team bring the Lepidoptera to life, allowing us to appreciate their unique features and intricacies. This image serves as a reminder of the rich history of natural history exploration and documentation, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world around us.
