Thanks to a mistranslation, i've used the term "Cleaner Fish" as my 17. Mermay prompt, which doesn't describe a genus, but various specimens of fish. I've actually meant the cleaner wrasse, but i'd count every other fish that cleans, like ancistrus (bristlenose catfish).

Robert "Micrographia" (1665) was the first work to depict microscopic specimens, and includes his famous illustration of a flea. Hooke praised the "beauty" of this creature, with its "suit of sable Armour" and "sharp pinns...like Porcupine’s Quills." 🦔🔬 ⁣#ArchivesBugs

In honor of we wanted to show a few plates from the 1843 Naturalist’s Library series. We love the illustrations of insects and fish, but what makes these plates even more exciting is the placement of the featured specimens within an exquisite natural environment.
