EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 567, featuring the Lepidopteran species Penthina grevillana, also known as Apotomis sauciana grevillana. The Sutherland Long-cloak, or Greville's Marble, is a striking butterfly with intricately patterned wings, displaying a beautiful fusion of orange, black, and white hues. The plant in the foreground is identified as Veronica triphyllos, commonly known as Fingered Speedwell. The plate, published between 1824 and 1839, is a testament to the meticulous work of renowned English botanical artist John Curtis, FLS. Curtis's British Entomology was a groundbreaking publication, showcasing a comprehensive collection of Lepidoptera species, meticulously illustrated and catalogued. The plates were produced during the 1820s and 1830s, a time when the study of natural history was gaining significant momentum in Europe. The Sutherland Long-cloak is a fascinating insect, with its wingspan reaching up to 30mm. The species is native to Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia. The butterfly's long, narrow wings are adorned with intricate patterns, making it a popular subject for collectors and natural historians. The presence of the Fingered Speedwell in the image adds an additional layer of interest, as the plant is known to attract various insect species, including the Sutherland Long-cloak. This image is a stunning reminder of the intricate relationships between plants and insects, as well as the remarkable attention to detail exhibited by natural historians and artists of the 19th century. The delicate interplay of colors, patterns, and textures in the plate make it a timeless treasure in the world of natural history.
