EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Phyllosoma larval stage of the Spiny Lobster, Palinurus elephas. The Phyllosoma larva is a planktonic stage in the complex life cycle of this marine crustacean. Unlike the adult form, which is characterized by powerful claws and a spiny body, the Phyllosoma larva resembles a small, free-swimming sea jelly with eight tentacles. The intricate details of the larva's anatomy are beautifully rendered in this engraving, with the delicate tentacles and gills clearly visible. The larva's body is translucent, allowing the viewer to see the internal organs, including the digestive system and the developing eyespots. This image is taken from Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville's Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris between 1834 and 1839. The work was illustrated by a team of skilled engravers, including du Casse, who produced these stunningly detailed plates. The Spiny Lobster, also known as the European lobster, is a highly prized marine creature found in the Atlantic and Mediterranean seas. The larval stage of this species plays a crucial role in its life cycle, allowing it to disperse and colonize new areas. The study of Phyllosoma larvae is essential for understanding the ecology and population dynamics of this important commercial and recreational species.
