Mosquito head

Mosquito. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a male mosquito (Culex pipiens). Its large compound eyes are seen at lower right. Its feathery antennae protrude from between them. Male mosquitos antennae are bushier than those of the females as they are used to detect mates by the precise frequency of their wingbeats. Its sensory palps stretch from upper left to lower right, with its proboscis beneath them. Mosquitoes feed using this proboscis, but only the female mosquitoes feed on blood, the males feeding on plant juices such as nectar. Magnification: x14 at 5x7cm size. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © POWER AND SYRED/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases the intricate details of a male mosquito's head, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the mesmerizing beauty and complexity of this tiny creature. At lower right, we are drawn to its large compound eyes, which provide an astonishing perspective into the world of these buzzing insects. Between these eyes, delicate feathery antennae protrude gracefully, distinguishing the male from its female counterparts. These bushier antennae serve as powerful tools for detecting potential mates by precisely discerning their wingbeats' frequency. Stretching from upper left to lower right are sensory palps that play a crucial role in guiding the mosquito's feeding process. Beneath them lies its proboscis - an elongated mouthpart used for feeding. Interestingly, only female mosquitoes rely on blood as their source of nourishment while males prefer plant juices like nectar. The magnification level of x14 at 5x7cm size allows us to appreciate every minute detail with awe-inspiring clarity. This photograph not only captures the essence of nature but also serves as a reminder of the remarkable diversity found within our ecosystem. It is through such scientific explorations that we gain deeper insights into these fascinating creatures and develop a greater appreciation for their vital roles in our environment.
