EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases the striking Lucanus Dux beetle (centre) and its fellow family members, transporting us back in time to the 1850s. The Lucanus Dux, also known as the "great spotted herald beetle," is a large and impressive insect, characterized by its distinctive brown exoskeleton adorned with iridescent spots and intricate patterns. Its long, curved antennae, which can reach up to half the length of its body, are a defining feature of this beetle species. The Lucanus family, to which the Lucanus Dux belongs, is a diverse group of beetles, with over 1,000 described species. These beetles are known for their large size, vibrant colors, and intricate patterns, making them popular subjects for natural history collectors and enthusiasts. This photograph, taken in the mid-1850s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of these intriguing insects. The meticulously arranged specimens in the image are displayed on a piece of felt, with the Lucanus Dux taking center stage. The attention to detail and care taken in the arrangement and presentation of the beetles is a testament to the passion and dedication of the naturalists and collectors of the time. As we admire the beauty and intricacy of these ancient creatures, we are reminded of the rich history of natural history and the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world. This photograph is not only a stunning work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering us a glimpse into the past and the fascinating world of the Lucanus family of beetles.
