EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration showcases the dark green fritillary, Argynnis aglaja, a captivating invertebrate belonging to the order Lepidoptera and the family Nymphalidae, commonly known as brush-footed butterflies. Depicted in exquisite detail by Theo Johnson for his seminal work "Illustrations of British Butterflies: with occasional figures of the larva, pupa, and food-plant," published in 1878, this illustration highlights the intricate patterns and colors of the adult Argynnis aglaja. The dark green fritillary is a rare and elusive butterfly native to the British Isles. Its wings display a dark green upper surface with orange-brown borders, while the underside boasts a series of intricate, interconnected orange spots on a dark ground color. This butterfly is often mistaken for the more common high brown fritillary due to their similar appearance. The larvae of the dark green fritillary primarily feed on violets (Viola spp.) and pansies (Viola tricolor), while the pupa stage takes place in a silken cocoon hidden beneath the soil. The metamorphosis from caterpillar to adult is a testament to the intricacy and beauty of the natural world. As an arthropod, the dark green fritillary, like all insects, possesses six legs and an exoskeleton, making it part of the Hexapoda class. Its inclusion in Johnson's work is a testament to the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world through art and scientific illustration. This illustration not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also as an important record of the natural history of the British Isles, providing valuable insights into the biology and ecology of this elusive and captivating butterfly species.
