EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 78: Callionymus lyra, the Common Dragonet - A Victorian-era illustration of this enigmatic and strikingly beautiful deep-water dragonet, as rendered in exquisite detail by the renowned Scottish naturalist and artist, William MacGillivray. This watercolor painting, created between 1831 and 1841, showcases the dragonet's vibrant, iridescent blue body, adorned with intricate, wavy, green and brown lines, and its distinctive, elongated, brown dorsal and anal spines, which resemble the strings of a lyre. A member of the Callionymidae family, the Common Dragonet (Callionymus lyra) is a small, bony fish belonging to the order Perciformes and the class Actinopterygii, commonly known as ray-finned fish. This remarkable illustration offers a glimpse into the rich natural history knowledge of the 19th century, and serves as a testament to MacGillivray's extraordinary artistic talents.
