The computer manipulation of this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) brings out the vibrant hues and textures of this tiny insect from the Aphididae family. Known as a major agricultural pest, these aphids survive by feeding on plant sap. The image showcases the remarkable features that enable this minuscule creature to thrive. With its sharp mouthpiece, it pierces through plant tissues, extracting vital nutrients for sustenance. However, their feeding habits also make them potential vectors for diseases that can harm plants.
