Science Saturday

IT’S THE BEETLES!

Sarah Finn, our long-time graduate intern and former social media science editor (now Archival Projects Librarian at Milwaukee Public Library) was always deeply intrigued by insects, especially beetles. So, in her honor we present these wood-engraved and chromolithographed beetles from our 1885 three-volume edition of J. G Wood’s Animate Creation, adapted to American zoology by the American physician and zoologist Joseph B. Holder and published in New York by Selmar Hess. The publication, a revision of Wood’s original 1853 British publication The Illustrated Natural History, was originally issued in 60 fascicles, with the chromolithographs printed by the noted Boston lithographing firm L. Prang & Company. Many of the images used in these volumes also appeared in other natural history publications in America and Europe, such as Brehms Thierleben.

It's #NationalAardvarkWeek! Besides being one of my favorite mammals, it's also the most evolutionarily distinct one (more on that below). Stay tuned for more aardvark art and info all week long! 😎 #AardvarksAareAawesome

"Erdferkel," Plate 14 in Brehms thierleben, allgemeine kunde des thierreichs, 1876-9. Biodiversity Heritage Library.

#DYK the Aardvark (Orycteropus afer) is the only living representative of an entire ORDER of mammals, Tubulidentata? This helped it score as the #1 most evolutionarily distinctive (ED) mammal on ZSL's EDGE of Existence list:

[FYI the only other mammal order with a single living member is Microbiotheria, represented by the Monito del Monte (Dromiciops gliroides) - however they have more living relatives one step out in superorder Australidelphia than the Aardvark does in the Afrotheria.]

Barbara and "The Cat"

Carl Jung Depth Psychology Facebook Group The Cat, Dog and Horse Lectures, and “The Beyond”   THE CAT The Felidae, or cat tribe, is a large family of which the domestic cat is only one branch. Brehm’s Thierleben mentions lions, tigers, pumas, leopards, panthers, snow leopards, jaguars, and yet more as members of the true cat family. It may be wondered why I use an old-fashioned book like Brehm’s…

Superb Owl Motivation Monday

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Rams for their triumph over the Cincinnati Bengals in Superb Owl LVI, coming from behind on a late touchdown with just a minute and a half of remaining game time!  The winning touchdown was brought home by game MVP Cooper Kupp. That’s motivation!

We honor the victorious Rams with a superb rendering of the Long-Eared Owl (Asio otus), whose prominent tufts are not ears but are nonetheless impressive. The print is from Birds: The Paintings of Terance James Bond published in 1988 by The Lutterworth Press at Cambridge.

The ram (and his ewe) is from a wood engraving in volume three of the second edition of Brehm’s Thierleben: Allgemeine Kunde des Thierreichs (Brehm’s Animal Life: General Knowledge of the Animal Kingdom), published in Leipzig in 1883 by Bibliographischen Instituts. He is a Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis), one of only two species of mountain sheep native to North America, here drawn by the noted German wildlife artist Gustav Mützel and engraved in wood by Karl Jahrmargt. Brehm’s Thierleben, originally published in six volumes in 1869, was one of the first major popular zoological works.
