EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 4 from Illustrations of British Butterflies and Their Larvae, with the Plants on Which They Feed, features the enchanting Pale Clouded Yellow butterfly, Colias hyale. This exquisite illustration, created by Theo Johnson in 1892, showcases the butterfly's intricate wings, which display a beautiful pattern of orange-yellow and black markings. The long, slender antennae and delicate wings of this Pieridae species are a testament to the intricacy and beauty of the Lepidoptera order. The accompanying larva, depicted in the lower half of the plate, is equally fascinating. The pale, almost translucent, caterpillar is adorned with small, white, tubercle-like projections and a distinct, dark head. This image offers a unique glimpse into the metamorphosis of this invertebrate, highlighting the incredible transformation from caterpillar to butterfly. As a member of the Hexapoda class, Colias hyale is part of the vast and diverse group of arthropods, characterized by six legs. The Lepidoptera order, to which this butterfly belongs, is particularly renowned for its stunningly beautiful members, which include moths and butterflies. This illustration serves as a reminder of the natural wonders that can be found in the British Isles and the importance of documenting and preserving the diverse array of insects, including the captivating Pale Clouded Yellow butterfly.
