EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 407, featuring the Hymenopteran insect species, *Lampronota crenicornis. The intricately detailed illustration was hand-drawn between 1824 and 1839 by an unknown artist, under the direction of the renowned naturalist Henry Stephen Goodrich, who was responsible for the series' publication. The insect depicted in this plate belongs to the family Vespidae, with the generic name *Lampronota being proposed by the entomologist Hermann Julius Kolbe, although it is now considered a synonym of *Lissonata (Fitton et al., 1984). The Hymenopteran is shown in close proximity to the Spreading Halberd-leaved Orache, scientifically known as *Atriplex patula. This plant, native to Europe, Asia, and northern Africa, is characterized by its spreading, halberd-shaped leaves. The vibrant green foliage provides a striking contrast against the intricate patterns and rich colors of the insect. The Hymenopteran, with its distinctive yellow and black exoskeleton, is a common sight in many gardens and natural habitats. Its elongated body, with the prominent crenicornis (horn-like structure) on its head, is a testament to the intricacy and diversity of the insect world. The meticulous illustration in Curtis's British Entomology serves as a testament to the natural history artists' skill and dedication to documenting the natural world during the Victorian era. This image, with its rich historical and scientific significance, is an essential addition to any collection of natural history, entomology, or botanical art. It is a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world, as well as the importance of preserving and documenting it for future generations.
