EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the Clifden Nonpareil, or Blue Underwing Moth, Catocala fraxini. The image is based on a natural observation and was created by the skilled hands of Johann Carl Bock, following the meticulous work of Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers. The engraving showcases the adult moth in all its beauty and intricacy, with its large, yellow underwings adorned with distinctive black markings. The Clifden Nonpareil is a member of the Lepidoptera order, specifically the Noctuidae family, and is known for its striking appearance and interesting life cycle. During the day, the moth rests with its wings closed, blending in with its surroundings due to its cryptic coloration. At night, it reveals its vibrant underwings, which serve as a camouflage against predators. The Clifden Nonpareil undergoes complete metamorphosis, transforming from a caterpillar to a pupa, and finally to an adult moth. The caterpillar, or larva, feeds on various host plants, such as willows and poplars. The pupa stage is a transitional phase, during which the moth undergoes significant internal changes, preparing for its adult life. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the natural world, as well as the dedication and skill of the naturalists and artists of the past. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of the Clifden Nonpareil and to marvel at the wonders of the insect world.
