Cuphea calophylla Cham. & Schltdl.

This is a herbarium specimen sheet, not a cartoon or caricature. It shows pressed and dried botanical material — two collections of Cuphea calophylla (Lythraceae) gathered in Paraguay by Dr. Emil Hassler, bearing small opposite leaves and tiny pink flowers characteristic of the genus. Labels record collection numbers 6066 and 7133, localities in central Paraguay and the upper Ypané river region, and a determination by Shirley A. Graham. A color calibration card and ruled scale are standard digitization tools. No satirical tradition applies here. Writing a caricature wall label for this object would be a fabrication; the image is a scientific natural history document.
