EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor drawing depicts the Common Scad, scientifically known as Trachurus trachurus, a fish native to the Atlantic Ocean and neighboring waters. The illustration is part of a collection of 67 original watercolor drawings of mammals, reptiles, and fish discovered in King Georges Sound, Western Australia, and its vicinity. The drawings were created by Robert Neill and published between 1839 and 1842. The Common Scad, also known as the Atlantic horse mackerel or grey mackerel, is a member of the Carangidae family, which belongs to the larger order of Perciformes, and the class of Osteichthyes, or bony fish. This ray-finned fish is characterized by its elongated, torpedo-shaped body, with a yellowish-grey color on its back and sides, and silver-white on its belly. The fish's most distinctive feature is its long, yellow tail fin, which helps it swim quickly through the water. The Common Scad is a popular food fish in many parts of the world, and is highly valued for its firm, white flesh. It is a pelagic fish, meaning it lives in the open ocean, and can be found in waters ranging from the surface to a depth of 1,000 meters. The Common Scad is a fast-swimming fish, capable of reaching speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour. Robert Neill's intricate and detailed watercolor drawing captures the beauty and dynamism of this fascinating fish, providing a glimpse into the rich marine life of King Georges Sound over 180 years ago. The manuscript notes accompanying the drawing offer valuable information about the fish's identification, habitat, and characteristics, making this an important historical and scientific record.
