EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of woodworms through a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). The image captures the larva of a common furniture beetle emerging from an unidentified hole, highlighting the destructive potential these tiny creatures possess. Wood-boring beetles like this one are notorious for causing extensive structural damage to timber in buildings, making them a significant concern for homeowners and architects alike. At a magnification of x35 when printed 10cm wide, every detail becomes apparent. The larva's head and eye are prominently displayed, while its legs can be seen delicately navigating its wooden habitat. The false-coloured SEM technique adds depth and vibrancy to the image, enhancing our understanding of these fascinating insects. This photograph not only serves as a testament to nature's diversity but also reminds us of the delicate balance between human-made structures and wildlife. It offers valuable insights into entomology, zoology, and biology by providing an up-close look at an often-overlooked creature that plays a crucial role in ecosystems worldwide. Captured by renowned photographer Steve Gschmeissner for Science Photo Library, this stunning print is perfect for enthusiasts interested in exploring the wonders of fauna and wild life or those studying insect behavior and ecology.
