‎HUMPHREYS, Henry Noel (illus.); WESTWOOD, John Obadiah.‎

‎British Moths and Their Transformations.‎

‎London: William Smith 1843-45. First edition splendidly illustrating the moths of the British isles in 124 hand-coloured plates. A collaboration with the leading entomologist John Westwood who contributed the insect descriptions this is one of Humphrey's most accomplished works as a naturalist illustrator. A skilled artist trained in Brussels Humphreys became interested in natural history after a tour of Italy. Upon his return he settled in London as a neighbour of a relative the landscape architect and prolific author J. C. Loudon. Humphreys wrote for a series of garden periodicals including Loudon's Gardener's Magazine. In the 1840s he published two entomological works with Westwood: British Butterflies and their Transformations 1841 and subsequently the present work on moths; both proved extremely popular. Westwood 1805-1893 was one of the first entomologists to obtain an academic position at Oxford University and he founded with Frederick William Hope the Entomological Society of London. In 1846 the name Westwoodia was given in his honour to a genus of Hymenoptera. He was himself a skilled insect illustrator contributing drawings to several publications between the 1820s and the 1840s. 2 vols large quarto 273 x 210 mm. With 124 hand-coloured plates. Contemporary purple mottled half morocco spines with gilt-ruled raised bands gilt lettering in compartments marbled sides and endpapers edges gilt. Patch of skinning on front pastedown of vol.
