Fruit fly, SEM Z340 / 0700
Fruit fly. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a fruit fly (Drosophila busckii). Its two compound eyes (red) are seen on either side of the head. Between the eyes are the antennae, which consist of small fleshy pads with bristle-like extensions called aristas. Fruit flies are widely used in genetic experiments, particularly in mutation experiments, because they reproduce rapidly and their genetic systems are well understood. Magnification: x70 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a fruit fly's head, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors highlight the two compound eyes, which are positioned on either side of the fly's head in a striking red hue. Nestled between these eyes are its antennae, adorned with small fleshy pads and bristle-like extensions known as aristas. Fruit flies, scientifically referred to as Drosophila busckii, have long been utilized in genetic experiments due to their rapid reproduction and well-understood genetic systems. Their significance as model organisms for mutation studies is underscored by their inclusion in this visually stunning image. With a magnification of x70 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph offers viewers an up-close look into the fascinating world of these tiny creatures. It serves as a testament to the power of scientific research and exploration within fields such as biology and entomology. The SEM technique employed here allows us to appreciate the beauty hidden within microscopic subjects like insects. By shedding light on their complex structures and features, we gain valuable insights into their biology while also fostering our understanding of genetics and wildlife. This mesmerizing print from Science Photo Library captures both the aesthetic allure and scientific importance that lie within even the smallest corners of our natural world.
