EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored steel engraving showcases an intriguing assemblage of Cretan fauna, featuring the Rhinoceros Scarab Beetle (Rhinoceros scarab, Scarabaeus pyracmon), Golofa Porteri Scarab Beetle (Golofa porteri), Cretan Scar-Fish (Scarus creticus), and Scarites Buparius Beetle (Scarites buparius). The Rhinoceros Scarab Beetle, with its distinctive horned head and powerful mandibles, is a common sight in the Mediterranean region. The Golofa Porteri Beetle, endemic to Crete, displays a striking metallic green sheen and is named after the British naturalist Sir William John Edward Oliphant Porter. The Cretan Scar-Fish, also known as the Cretan Wrasse or the Crete Wrasse, is a vibrant and colorful fish found in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Its body is adorned with a series of dark, diagonal stripes, making it a striking contrast against the rocky seabed. The Scarites Buparius Beetle, with its elongated, cylindrical body and distinctive brown and yellow markings, is a common beetle found in the Mediterranean region. This engraving, created by du Casse after an illustration by Adolph Fries, is a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of the Cretan ecosystem as documented in the Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History by Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville in the mid-19th century. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of this print serve as a reminder of the rich natural history of the Mediterranean and the importance of preserving its unique biodiversity.
