EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 461, featuring the Black-legged Frog-hopper, Cercopis vulnerata, in its natural habitat. The intricately detailed illustration, produced between 1824 and 1839 by the renowned botanical artist John Curtis FLS, showcases the Hemipteran insect's distinctive appearance. The Black-legged Frog-hopper, also known as the Water Horehound Frog-hopper due to its association with the Water Horehound plant (Lycopus europaeus), is a small, herbivorous insect that derives its name from its ability to leap through the air with surprising agility. The illustration reveals the Black-legged Frog-hopper's elongated, slender body and its characteristic long, tube-like mouthparts, adapted for sucking plant sap. The insect's legs are adorned with tiny spines, providing extra grip on the plant surface. The Black-legged Frog-hopper's body is predominantly brown, with black legs and wings, which are folded beneath its body when not in use. The accompanying plant, Lycopus europaeus, is depicted in the background, its vibrant, purple-blue flowers providing a striking contrast to the insect's muted colors. The Water Horehound is a common aquatic plant found in Europe, and its leaves and flowers are used in traditional herbal medicine for various ailments, including respiratory issues and gastrointestinal problems. This exquisite plate, a testament to the meticulous work of John Curtis and the advancements in entomological illustration during the 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural world of the Hemiptera order, specifically the Cercopidae family, and the intricate relationship between insects and their host plants.
