EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated 1901, showcases the striking contrast between two distinct species of lizards: the Green Lizard and the Ocellated Lizard. The Green Lizard, native to the southern parts of England, is depicted in its natural habitat, blending seamlessly with the foliage. With its vibrant green coloration and distinctive crest, this reptile is a common sight in the British Isles. In stark contrast, the Ocellated Lizard, restricted to southern Europe and north Africa, is displayed in the same image. Its unique pattern of circular, orange markings, or 'ocelli,' makes it a standout among other lizards. The Ocellated Lizard's restricted range is a testament to the diverse array of ecosystems found across Europe and Africa. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the past. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving habitats and protecting endangered species, such as the Ocellated Lizard, which faces threats from habitat loss and fragmentation. The Green and Ocellated Lizards, despite their differences, share a common thread as valuable members of their respective ecosystems. This photograph, a testament to the natural world's beauty and complexity, continues to inspire appreciation for the wonders of the natural world.
