Plate 133 from the John Reeves Collection: A Stunning Depiction of the Purple-Spotted Bigeye, Priacanthus tayenus This exquisite print showcases the Purple-Spotted Bigeye, Priacanthus tayenus, a mesmerizing fish native to the waters of the Indo-Pacific region. The plate is part of the extensive collection amassed by John Reeves during his travels to Canton, China, in the 19th century. Reeves, a British tea inspector, was not only an accomplished administrator but also a passionate naturalist with a keen interest in Chinese natural history. The meticulous attention to detail in this drawing is evident in the intricate depiction of the fish's anatomy. The Purple-Spotted Bigeye is characterized by its large, vibrant purple eyes, which stand out against its grey body. The fish's dorsal fin is elongated, and its lips are thin and slightly upturned. The drawing also highlights the distinctive barbels located beneath its chin and the small, sharp teeth lining its jaws. This fish belongs to the family Priacanthidae, order Perciformes, class Actinopterygii, and phylum Osteichthyes. The Priacanthidae family is commonly known as the Bigeyes or Catalufas, and they are known for their large eyes and elongated dorsal fins. The Purple-Spotted Bigeye is a popular target for recreational and commercial fisheries due to its delicious taste and attractive appearance. The John Reeves Collection is a valuable resource for researchers and natural historians, providing insights into the natural world of China during the 19th century. This stunning print of the Purple-Spotted Bigeye is a testament to Reeves' dedication to documenting the diverse and fascinating fauna of Asia.
