Antique Framed Print : SEM of spider
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
SEM of spider
Head of jumping spider. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a zebra jumping spider, Salticus scenicus. Five of its eight eyes (rounded bumps, upper centre) are seen, one large pair at the front, and smaller eyes on the side. Below the eyes are the two large chelicerae which carry teeth for biting prey. On either side of the chelicerae are long, segmented, leg-like palps, which are transformed into copulatory organs in the adult male. The spiders walking legs are also seen. Jumping spiders have acute vision which assists in their jumping habit. They stalk their prey, then jump on them at the last moment. Magnification: x20 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a zebra jumping spider's head, captured using a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals five out of the eight eyes possessed by this remarkable arachnid species. Positioned at the upper center, one large pair of eyes dominates the front, while smaller ones adorn its sides. Just below these mesmerizing orbs lie two prominent chelicerae armed with sharp teeth for capturing prey. Flanking the chelicerae are long and segmented palps that resemble leg-like structures. Interestingly, in adult males, these palps undergo a transformation to serve as copulatory organs. Adjacent to them are the spider's walking legs, which aid in its exceptional jumping ability. Jumping spiders like Salticus scenicus possess acute vision that greatly assists their hunting technique. With stealthy precision, they stalk their unsuspecting prey before pouncing on them at precisely the right moment. Magnified 20 times and printed at a size of 6x7cm, this SEM photograph offers an up-close glimpse into the extraordinary world of these agile creatures. It highlights their unique features and serves as a testament to nature's awe-inspiring diversity.
