EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph showcases a captivating collection of Ctenophora, or comb jellies, captured in their ethereal beauty by German naturalist Ernst Haeckel and brought to life through the meticulous artistry of Adolf Glitsch. The image features six distinct species of Ctenophora: Haeckelia rubra (1, 2), Hormiphora foliosa (3), Callianira bialata (4), Tinerfe cyanea (5), and Lampea pancerina (6). Ctenophora, often mistakenly referred to as jellyfish, are actually distinct from true jellyfish, belonging to the phylum Ctenophora. They are characterized by their unique row of ctenes or comb rows, which cover their bodies and provide the means for propulsion through the water. These comb rows are lined with tiny, hair-like cilia that create a stunning, shimmering effect as they move through the water. The first two specimens depicted in this print are Haeckelia rubra, with their vibrant red coloration and delicate, feathery appendages. The Hormiphora foliosa (3) can be seen in the center, its intricate comb rows forming a beautiful, complex pattern. The Callianira bialata (4) is characterized by its long, trailing tentacles and striking, bi-lobed bell shape. The Tinerfe cyanea (5) displays a stunning, iridescent blue coloration, while the Lampea pancerina (6) boasts a more compact, spherical shape. This exquisite chromolithograph is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as captured by the keen observations of Ernst Haeckel and the artistic mastery of Adolf Glitsch over a century ago. It remains a captivating reminder of the wonders that lie beneath the surface of our oceans.
