EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 20 from Illustrations of British Butterflies and their Larvae (1892) by Theo Johnson showcases the captivating beauty of the Apatura iris, commonly known as the Purple Emperor. This exquisite illustration brings to life the intricate details of this magnificent invertebrate, which is considered one of the largest and most impressive butterflies in Europe. The Apatura iris is a member of the Lepidoptera order, which includes moths and butterflies. This brush-footed butterfly, also known as a hexapod due to its six legs, is part of the Apaturinae family and is often referred to as a four-footed butterfly due to the large hindwings that give the appearance of extra legs. The illustration depicts the adult Purple Emperor in all its glory, with its vibrant blue and purple wings adorned with intricate patterns. The larva, or caterpillar, of this butterfly is also shown in the same plate, demonstrating the remarkable transformation from a seemingly ordinary caterpillar to a breathtaking butterfly. The Purple Emperor is a rare and elusive species, with a preference for mature woodlands and heathland habitats. The illustration provides a valuable record of this elusive creature, which was likely difficult to observe and document in the wild during the time of publication. Theo Johnson's meticulous attention to detail and exceptional artistic skill are evident in this stunning illustration, which continues to captivate viewers over a century after its creation. The Apatura iris remains an iconic symbol of the natural beauty and diversity of the British Isles, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving habitats that support these remarkable creatures.
