EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the Eastern box turtle, Terrapene carolina carolina, a species native to the eastern United States. The image is taken from Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelms Encyclopedia of Natural History: Amphibia, published in Augsburg, Germany, in 1794. The Eastern box turtle, also known as Testudocarinata, is a medium-sized turtle with a distinctive hinge-like plastron, allowing it to close its shell tightly. The species is characterized by its brightly colored, intricately patterned carapace, which varies from region to region. In this engraving, the Eastern box turtle is depicted with a vibrant orange and brown shell, contrasted against its olive-green limbs. The Eastern box turtle is an important species in the realm of zoology and herpetology, with a rich history that spans centuries. This engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that was prevalent during the Enlightenment period. The intricate design and vivid colors showcase the beauty and complexity of the natural world, as well as the dedication of naturalists and scientists to documenting and preserving the natural history of their time. The Eastern box turtle is currently listed as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), with populations declining due to habitat loss, fragmentation, and road mortality. This engraving serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts and the need to protect this fascinating species and its habitat for future generations to enjoy.
