EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from John Curtis's seminal work, "British Entomology," specifically plate 192, which was published between 1824 and 1839. The plate showcases two Coleoptera beetles, Patrobus apinus and Patrobus septentrionis, also known as the Winged Patrobus. The beetles are depicted in intricate detail, with their elongated, winged bodies and distinctively patterned elytra (wing cases). The Patrobus species are part of the Lucanidae family, commonly known as stag beetles due to their antler-like mandibles. The plant featured in the plate is Saxifraga hypnoides, commonly known as Moss Saxifrage. The delicate, mossy foliage provides a striking contrast to the robust beetles, adding an element of natural beauty to the composition. Saxifraga hypnoides is a perennial herb native to Europe, Asia, and North America, and is characterized by its creeping stems and small, white or pink flowers. The meticulous illustration was produced during the 1820s and 1830s, a time when the study of natural history was experiencing a surge in popularity and advancement. The plate is a testament to the dedication and skill of the naturalists and illustrators of the time, who painstakingly documented the natural world for future generations to learn from and appreciate. This image is a valuable historical record of the natural history of Britain during the 19th century and is a must-have for any collection focused on entomology, natural history, or the history of science.
