EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 111, featuring the vibrant and intricately patterned Coleoptera beetle, Chrysomela adonidis, also known as Entomoscelis adonidis. The beetle, not indigenous to Lincolnshire, is shown gracefully perched atop the delicate and verdant Fox-tail Feather-moss, Porotrichum alopecurum (Hypnum alopecurum). The plate, published between 1824 and 1839, is a testament to the exquisite detail and accuracy of natural history illustration during the 19th century. John Curtis, FLS, the esteemed British botanist and entomologist, was the mind behind this remarkable work. The plate, which also includes a representation of the related species Ledipotera, showcases the diverse and captivating world of butterflies and insects that inhabited the British Isles during this era. The Lincolnshire Chrysomela beetle, with its striking red and black exoskeleton and distinctive antennae, adds a vibrant and intriguing element to the plate. The delicate and intricately detailed illustration of the Fox-tail Feather-moss, which provides a natural habitat for the beetle, highlights the importance of the interconnectedness of various species within the natural world. This image is a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world that was being explored and documented during the 1820s and 1830s, and serves as an inspiration for the continued study and appreciation of the natural world today.
