SEM of head of zebra jumping spider, Salticus sp
Head of jumping spider. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a zebra jumping spider, Salticus scenicus. Six 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. 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 5x7cm size. Magnification: x55 at 5x8ins size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a zebra jumping spider's head, captured through a colored scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals six out of eight eyes, with a prominent pair at the front and smaller ones on the sides. Just below these mesmerizing eyes lie two large chelicerae equipped with sharp teeth for capturing prey. Flanking the chelicerae are long, segmented palps that resemble leg-like structures but serve as copulatory organs in adult males. The photograph also offers a glimpse of the spider's walking legs, emphasizing its agile nature. Jumping spiders possess remarkable vision that aids their unique hunting technique. They patiently stalk their unsuspecting prey before pouncing on them in one swift leap. With a magnification of x20 at 5x7cm size or x55 at 5x8ins size, this SEM image allows us to appreciate the extraordinary beauty hidden within these tiny arachnids. It is an exquisite testament to the wonders found in nature and serves as a reminder of how diverse and fascinating our world truly is. This stunning portrayal of a zebra jumping spider's head was captured by Science Photo Library—a treasure trove for scientific imagery—showcasing their expertise in documenting wildlife and providing valuable resources for research and education purposes.
