The formal naming system was developed a while after the Insects of Suriname was published (#Macleay adds many to his copy) but her notes give life history accounts of the species, & so it was one of the earliest (& maybe still the most attractive) ecological text books 🧵pt8

#Macleay concluded that #MariaSibyllaMerian produced a ‘wilful falsehood’
Many of her critics were quick to say what they perceived as wrong (this bird-killing spider was in fact true) rather than focus on all the scientific value & pure wonder.

This bird eating tarantula in particular annoyed #Macleay as he notes that they’re ‘always in holes in the earth….it certainly never catches birds or the pict of the bird represented, nor do I believe that of course touch any food except insects’ 🧵pt6

And by heck, #Macleay did not hold back on his comments about #MariaSibyllaMerian’s work
To quote his notes ‘this plate is a tissue of pictorial lies’ shows us what he thought about some of the artistic license Maria used (and how he hadn’t read her notes..)

#Macleay was primarily a Lepidopterist and owned many publications on them, one of which was #MariaSibyllaMerian’s ground breaking books #Insects of #Suriname
(This one was published posthumously, with notes & further plates added by her daughter Joannes) 🧵pt4
