Varieties of Marine Invertebrates: Spined Worms and Bicolored Leech, 1845
About the Item
This original antique engraving depicts a variety of marine invertebrates:
1. **Phyllococte de part et d'autre épineux** - This might refer to a type of marine worm or possibly a sea cucumber with protruding spines for defense.
2. **Aperoïte herissée** - This could be another type of marine worm or echinoderm, likely characterized by its bristly texture.
3. **Polynoe épineuse** - This is likely a scale worm, part of the Polynoidae family, known for their bristles and scales along the sides of their body.
4. **Potoinebelle épineuse** - The name does not correspond directly to a known species, but based on the illustration, it could be another type of bristled marine worm.
5. **Clepsine bicolore** - Clepsine is a genus of leeches, and the term "bicolore" indicates a two-toned color pattern.
The print, a hand-colored engraving from 'Dictionnaire Classique des Sciences Naturelles', would have been significant for sharing detailed visual information about these less commonly known marine species. The hand-coloring enhances the textural details and physical characteristics of the animals, which would have been quite informative for 19th-century naturalists and enthusiasts.
