EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, taken from the renowned Curtis British Entomology series, showcases two exquisite moth species, Yponomeuta echiella, also known as the Viper's Bugloss Moth, and Yponomeuta pusiella, or the Gromwell Moth. The moths are depicted in stunning detail, with their delicate wings spread wide against a backdrop of the Common Gromwell plant, Lithospermum officinale. The Viper's Bugloss Moth, with its distinctive black and white markings, can be found in Europe and Asia. The species is named for its association with the Viper's Bugloss plant, which serves as its larval food source. The moth's striking appearance is a perfect adaptation for camouflage among the plant's purple flowers. The Gromwell Moth, on the other hand, is native to Europe and North America. Its wings are adorned with intricate patterns of brown and gray, making it an excellent mimic of dead leaves. The moth's larvae feed on the Common Gromwell plant, which is also depicted in the print. This beautiful and intricately detailed print is a testament to the meticulous work of the renowned naturalist and illustrator, John Curtis, who oversaw the production of the Curtis British Entomology series between 1824 and 1839. The series, which includes over 3,000 plates, is considered a seminal work in the field of entomology and remains a valuable resource for scientists and enthusiasts alike. The Viper's Bugloss Moth and the Gromwell Moth, along with the Common Gromwell plant, are captured in their natural splendor, providing a glimpse into the intricate and fascinating world of Lepidoptera, the order of insects that includes butterflies and moths.
