EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a beautifully preserved pair of pressed insects: the Small Tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae) and the European Peacock (Inachis io), housed at the esteemed Natural History Museum in London. The intricate details of their vibrant wings are a testament to the exquisite artistry of the natural history collector and entomologist, Leonard Plukenet. The Small Tortoiseshell, with its orange and black wings adorned with white spots, is a common sight in Europe and Asia. This brush-footed butterfly, belonging to the family Nymphalidae, is known for its ability to mimic the toxic Monarch butterfly, providing it with an added layer of protection. The European Peacock, on the other hand, is a true spectacle with its iridescent green, blue, and gold wings. This large, four-footed butterfly, also known as the Inachis io, is a member of the family Nymphalidae and the order Lepidoptera. The European Peacock is not only a sight to behold but also holds cultural significance, often symbolizing transformation and rebirth. The pressed insects, an essential part of entomological collections, provide valuable insights into the natural world and serve as a reminder of the intricate beauty and diversity of the animal kingdom. This image, with its stunning display of color and detail, offers a glimpse into the rich history of entomology and the natural world.
