Woodlouse, SEM
Woodlouse. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the underside of a woodlouse (order Isopoda). Woodlice are common small crustaceans which are found throughout the world in leaf litter and beneath rocks and logs. They eat decaying plant and animal matter and some can roll their segmented body into a ball when threatened

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of a woodlouse, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image focuses on the underside of this fascinating creature belonging to the order Isopoda. Woodlice, commonly found worldwide in leaf litter and beneath rocks and logs, play an essential role in ecosystems by consuming decaying plant and animal matter. The woodlouse's segmented body is highlighted here, displaying its ability to roll into a protective ball when threatened. Its exoskeleton shines under the microscopic lens, revealing every detail of its biology. Delicate antennae protrude from its head, aiding in sensory perception as it navigates its environment. This photograph not only captures the natural world's incredible diversity but also serves as a testament to the wonders of zoology and wildlife exploration. As we delve deeper into understanding these small crustaceans' lives, we gain insights into their vital ecological roles. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into nature's intricacies through this stunning portrayal of a woodlouse. This image invites us to appreciate the often-overlooked beauty that lies within our surroundings – reminding us that even tiny creatures can hold immense significance within our vast ecosystem.
