EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration showcases Phalangista rulpina, the Rulping Brushtail Possum, taken from Plate 16 of Mammals of Australia Volume 1, published in 1863 by renowned English naturalist and illustrator John Gould. The meticulously detailed drawing, created by Elizabeth Gould, captures the essence of this fascinating marsupial native to Australia. The Rulping Brushtail Possum, also known as the Common Brushtail Possum or simply the Brushtail Possum, is a member of the Phalangeroidea family, which falls under the larger group of Metatheria, or marsupials. This nocturnal marsupial, with its rich, glossy brown fur, is depicted here in a rare moment of daytime repose outside its arboreal habitat. John Gould's nineteenth-century illustration is a testament to the intricate beauty of the natural world, showcasing the marsupial's elongated, prehensile tail and sharp claws, which enable it to easily navigate and cling to tree branches. The Rulping Brushtail Possum is an omnivorous creature, feeding on a variety of fruits, leaves, and insects. As one of the most widely distributed marsupials in Australia, the Brushtail Possum plays a significant role in the ecosystem, contributing to the dispersal of seeds and maintaining a balance within its habitat. This exquisite illustration provides a glimpse into the natural history of this remarkable marsupial species, offering a glimpse into the diverse and captivating world of Australian mammals during the 19th century.
