Bothrops and lancehead: reproduction of snake anatomical plates
Couldn't load pickup availability
This reproduction of an anatomical plate details the heads of two venomous snakes: the jararaca (Bothrops alternatus), shown in profile, and the piscivorous lancehead, seen from above, represented under the provisional denomination of Trigonocephalus cenchris. These illustrations come from Duméril's herpetology work and fit into the Crotalinae classification.
Taken from the French encyclopedia "Erpétologie générale ou Histoire naturelle complète des reptiles" (1834-1840), this engraving illustrates the meticulousness of anatomical studies conducted at the time. The graphic style and precision of the details demonstrate the desire to scientifically document reptiles, including their cranial structures.
This reproduction is relevant for zoology students, collectors of scientific illustrations, and anyone interested in snake morphology. It constitutes a piece of curiosity and knowledge, both informative and aesthetically neat, recalling the legacy of 19th-century encyclopedias.
