Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
SEM of bat hair
Bat hairs. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of shafts of hair from Daubentons bat, Myotis daubentoni. Each hair shaft has an outer cuticle made up of overlapping scales or plates. The plates are thought to prevent the hairs from matting together. The hair may be used by scientists to identify the species of bat. Daubentons bat is a small water bat found in Britain, Europe and Russia. Magnification: x1, 140 at 5x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of bat hair, captured through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The image reveals the shafts of hair from Daubentons bat, known scientifically as Myotis daubentoni. Each hair shaft is adorned with an outer cuticle composed of overlapping scales or plates, which serve a crucial purpose - preventing the hairs from matting together. Scientists have found this unique characteristic to be immensely helpful in identifying different species of bats. In particular, Daubentons bat, a small water bat commonly found in Britain, Europe and Russia. With a magnification power of x1,140 at 5x7cm size, this SEM image offers us an up-close look into the world of these fascinating creatures. The photograph not only highlights the surface anatomy and structure of bat hair but also emphasizes its significance in zoology and mammalian studies. It provides valuable insights into how keratin-based structures like hair play essential roles in animal bodies. Through this stunning visual representation by Science Photo Library, we are reminded once again that even seemingly ordinary elements such as hair can hold extraordinary secrets waiting to be unraveled by scientific exploration.
