EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor illustration showcases the Common Whiting, Merlangius merlangus, a native fish species found in the waters of King Georges Sound, Western Australia, and its neighboring regions. The Common Whiting is a bony fish belonging to the Gadiform order and the Gadidae family, characterized by its brown, spotted body and distinctive ray-fin. Robert Neill, the talented Australian artist, meticulously captured the intricate details of this fish in one of his 67 original watercolor drawings, published between 1839 and 1842. Neill's illustrations were an essential contribution to the scientific documentation of the diverse marine life in the region during the early days of Australian settlement. The Common Whiting is a popular food fish in the waters of Australia and New Zealand. It is a gadiform fish, commonly known as a 'groundfish,' and is found in shallow, sandy or muddy bottoms. This species is an essential component of the marine ecosystem, playing a crucial role in the food chain. Neill's illustration provides a glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating fish species, offering a window into the rich biodiversity of the Australian waters during the early 19th century. The manuscript notes accompanying the illustration further enhance its value, providing valuable insights into the scientific knowledge of the time. This beautiful work of art is a testament to Neill's artistic skill and his significant contribution to the scientific record of the marine life of Western Australia.
