EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, dating back to 1880, captures the enigmatic beauty of the Death's Head Hawk Moth (Acherontia atropos), a fascinating creature of the night that has long fascinated natural historians and collectors alike. The moth's common name derives from the distinctive skull-like pattern on the thorax of its caterpillar, which resembles the head of the Greek god of the dead, Hades or Thanatos. The Death's Head Hawk Moth is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, and is known for its large size and distinctive appearance. The adult moth has a wingspan of up to 10 centimeters and is characterized by its striking, vibrant orange and black wings. This historical photograph, sourced from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a window into a time when the natural world was still largely unexplored and the wonders of the insect kingdom were just beginning to be discovered. The image showcases the moth in its natural habitat, perched on a leaf, its wings spread wide, revealing the intricate patterns and colors that make it such a captivating subject. The accompanying caterpillar image, also from the same collection, offers a striking contrast to the adult moth, revealing the transformation that takes place during the metamorphosis from caterpillar to moth. The caterpillar, with its distinctive skull-like head, is a far cry from the graceful and elegant creature it becomes in adulthood. This photograph is not only a beautiful and intriguing record of a fascinating creature, but also a reminder of the rich natural history that surrounds us and the importance of preserving it for future generations to enjoy and learn from.
