EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 268, featuring the Dark Chestnut moth, Glaea subnigra, also known as Conistra ligula ab. subnigra. The Lepidopteran species is depicted in intricate detail, with its wings spread wide, revealing the intricate patterns and subtle coloration that characterize this moth. The Dark Chestnut is a member of the family Noctuidae, and its larvae feed on various grasses and sedges. The plant in the foreground is identified as Gymnadenia conopsea, also known as the Right-handed Orchis or Orchis conopsea. This beautiful orchid is native to Europe and is characterized by its distinctive right-handed spiral arrangement of flowers. The plant's delicate petals and sepals are displayed in full bloom, adding an elegant touch to the overall composition of the print. This exquisite entomological plate was produced during the 1820s and 1830s by the renowned British naturalist and botanist, John Curtis, FLS. Curtis's British Entomology was a groundbreaking work, featuring meticulously illustrated plates of various Lepidopteran species, and remains an essential reference for entomologists and natural history enthusiasts to this day. The Dark Chestnut moth and the Right-handed Orchis are depicted in their natural habitat, providing a glimpse into the intricate relationships between insects and the plants they rely on for survival. This stunning print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the importance of documenting it for future generations.
