EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur (The Butterflies in Representations according to Nature), showcases the striking differences between the Scarlet Tiger Moth (Callimorpha dominula) and the Jersey Tiger Moth (Euplagia quadripunctaria). The Scarlet Tiger Moths, depicted in the first four plates, are characterized by their vibrant orange and black wings, with intricate patterns that resemble the stripes of a tiger. The males (1 and 3) have larger wingspans and more prominent antennae than the females (2 and 4). The Jersey Tiger Moths, illustrated in plates 5 through 7, exhibit a similar color palette but with more defined black stripes and a larger number of orange spots. The males (5 and 6) can be distinguished by their longer, feathery antennae, while the females (7) have shorter antennae and more rounded abdomens. This engraving is a testament to the intricate detail and beauty of these Lepidoptera species. The Scarlet Tiger Moth and Jersey Tiger Moth undergo complete metamorphosis, transforming from caterpillars (not shown) to pupae, and eventually to adult moths. The intricacies of their life cycles, including their larval stages as Noctua matronula and Pericallia pericallia for the Scarlet Tiger Moth, and as Euplagia noctua and Euplagia quadripunctaria for the Jersey Tiger Moth, are essential to understanding the complexities of the natural world. Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur was a groundbreaking work in the field of entomology, providing an accurate and detailed record of various butterfly species. This engraving, produced by Johann Carl Bock, is a testament to the meticulous work that went into documenting these fascinating creatures and preserving their beauty for future generations.
