This detailed scientific illustration presents various species and sexes of moths from the Neoris and Loepa genera, including Neoris schrencki, Loepa galeropa, Loepa castanea, and others. The delicate coloring and precise anatomy reflect early 20th-century zoological accuracy, providing a taxonomic view of these silk moths. This plate was part of the monumental Fauna Palaearctica series, an entomological atlas dedicated to the Lepidoptera of the Palaearctic region, edited by Adalbert Seitz. The work was published by Alfred Kernen Verlag in Stuttgart, 1909.
Adalbert Seitz (1860–1938) was a renowned German entomologist best known for his multivolume work Die Großschmetterlinge der Erde (The Macrolepidoptera of the World). His publications combined scientific precision with extraordinary artistry, documenting thousands of butterfly and moth species from across the globe. His Fauna Palaearctica remains one of the most comprehensive visual records of butterflies and moths ever produced.
