EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Black V moth, Arctornis l-nigrum. The moth, also known by its alternative names Bombyx V nigrum and Leucoma salicis, is a member of the Saturniidae family, commonly referred to as the giant silkworm moths. The Black V moth is a striking creature, with its all-black wings adorned with prominent, white leucodonta spots. The thorax and abdomen of the moth are covered in a satin-like sheen, adding to its elegant appearance. The moth's bicolored wings are a testament to its bicolor nature, making it a fascinating subject for entomologists and natural history enthusiasts. The Black V moth undergoes complete metamorphosis, transforming from a caterpillar to a pupa, and finally to an adult moth. During its larval stage, the caterpillar feeds on the leaves of various plants, including willows and poplars. Once it has grown to maturity, it forms a pupa, which eventually hatches into an adult moth. This beautiful engraving was created by the skilled hand of Johann Carl Bock, and was published as part of Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving allows us to appreciate the intricacies of the Black V moth's anatomy and the delicate patterns on its wings. The use of hand-coloring adds an extra layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. The Black V moth is a reminder of the wonders of the natural world and the importance of preserving and studying the diverse range of insects that inhabit our planet.
