EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock in 1786 for Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' renowned work "Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur" (The Butterflies in Representations according to Nature), showcases two captivating moth species: the Black Arches or Nun Moth (Lymantria monacha) and the Owlet Moth (Panthea coenobita). The Black Arches Moth, depicted in figures 1-6, is characterized by its striking black wings adorned with intricate white arches. This moth, also known as the Gypsy Moth or the Wandering Moth, is native to Europe and Asia. The male and female moths can be distinguished by their differences in size and wing shape: males have larger wings and more pointed hindwings, while females have broader hindwings and are typically smaller. The Owlet Moth, illustrated in figure 7, derives its name from its resemblance to an owl's head, with its large, round eyespots on its thorax. The Panthea coenobita, or Phalaena coenobita, is native to the Mediterranean region and is known for its cryptic coloration, which helps it blend in with its surroundings. Both moths undergo complete metamorphosis, transforming from caterpillars to pupae and eventually to adult moths. The intricate details of their wings and bodies are beautifully captured in this historic engraving, providing a glimpse into the rich diversity of the Lepidoptera order and the natural world over 230 years ago.
