Carpet beetle
Carpet beetle (Anthrenus sp.) on carpet fibres, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Carpet beetle larvae are a significant pest, feeding on animal materials including fur, feathers, hair, leather and other fabrics, and stored food products. The larvae can survive for two to three years indoors, before hatching into free-living adult beetles. Magnification x12.5 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a Carpet beetle (Anthrenus sp. ) on carpet fibres, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the remarkable complexity and beauty found within this tiny creature. Carpet beetles are not only visually stunning but also notorious pests. Their larvae pose a significant threat as they feed voraciously on various animal materials such as fur, feathers, hair, leather, fabrics, and even stored food products. It is astonishing to learn that these larvae can survive indoors for up to two to three years before maturing into free-living adult beetles. With a magnification of x12.5 when printed at 10cm wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate the microscopic world in which these creatures exist. The fine details of their exoskeletons and delicate hairs become apparent under scrutiny. Through scientific exploration using tools like scanning electron microscopes (SEMs), we gain valuable insights into the biology and behavior of organisms like the Carpet beetle. This image serves as a reminder of both nature's intricacy and its potential challenges when it comes to coexisting with certain species. As we delve deeper into zoology and entomology, photographs like this one from Science Photo Library provide an opportunity for education and appreciation of our natural world – from majestic wildlife encounters to seemingly insignificant yet fascinating insects like the Carpet beetle.
