EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Leaf Insect C016 / 2231, offering a breathtaking view of its upperside. This Linnaeus leaf insect, scientifically known as Phyllium siccifolium, was obtained from the prestigious University of Valencia in Spain. Against a pristine white background, this nature's marvel exhibits its incredible camouflage abilities that make it blend seamlessly with its surroundings. Belonging to the animal kingdom and specifically categorized under arthropods and insects, this herbivorous creature displays an intricate anatomy designed for mimicry and survival. Its green hue perfectly imitates a leaf's coloration while its body structure resembles the shape of a delicate foliage. Through evolution, this endemic species has developed such invisible characteristics that it becomes almost indistinguishable from real leaves when observed from above. The photograph captures every minute detail of this elusive walking leaf insect using advanced scanning techniques called scanography. The result is a stunning portrayal of biodiversity within the world of invertebrates. With elements like stick bugs and butterflies also present in their family tree, these phasmids have fascinated entomologists for centuries. Framed by Science Photo Library without any commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned here, F. Martinez Clavel's artwork allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity found within our natural world through scientific exploration at Museo Valenciano de Historia Natural in Spain.
