"Table IV of Flies and Fleas" is an illustration from the 18th-century natural history work "Insecten-Belustigung" ("Insect Amusement") by the German artist and entomologist Johannes Augustin Rösel von Rosenhof. The work, published in parts between 1746 and 1761, is a significant contribution to entomology, providing detailed descriptions and illustrations of various insects. Table IV specifically focuses on the depiction of flies and fleas, showcasing Rösel von Rosenhof's meticulous attention to detail and his skill in rendering the anatomy and behavior of these small creatures.

Rösel von Rosenhof's illustrations were known for their scientific accuracy and artistic merit, often accompanied by text that provided observations and descriptions of the insects' life cycles and habitats. "Insecten-Belustigung" was among the first works to present insects in a naturalistic setting, as opposed to the more stylized representations common in earlier entomological literature. Table IV, like the other illustrations in the series, would have been based on Rösel von Rosenhof's direct observations and would have been hand-colored, a common practice of the time to bring such scientific illustrations to life.

Johannes Augustin Rösel von Rosenhof (1705–1759) was part of a tradition of artist-naturalists who significantly advanced the study of natural history during the Enlightenment. His work, including Table IV of Flies and Fleas, remains an important historical record of entomological knowledge and illustrative practice in the 18th century. It is not only of interest to historians of science and art but also continues to be appreciated by those with a general interest in the natural world and the history of its study.
