Culex mosquito larva C017 / 8352
Culex mosquito larva, with a breathing tube, on the waters surface. Mosquito larvae have a well-developed head (upper right) with mouth brushes used for feeding and propulsion. The larvae develop through four stages, or instars, after which they metamorphose into pupae. At the end of the abdomen (left) is a long breathing siphon with an end spiracle. This is in contact with the air, to take in oxygen and remove carbon dioxide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of a Culex mosquito larva, showcasing its unique features and life cycle. The larva is seen gracefully floating on the surface of water, with its breathing tube prominently displayed. Its well-developed head, adorned with mouth brushes for feeding and propulsion, can be observed in the upper right corner. As these larvae progress through four distinct stages known as instars, they eventually undergo metamorphosis into pupae. At the end of their abdomen lies a long breathing siphon accompanied by an end spiracle. This vital appendage allows them to maintain contact with air, facilitating oxygen intake while eliminating carbon dioxide. The black background accentuates the vibrant hues and delicate structure of this aquatic insect species. With its presence in freshwater environments, this Culex mosquito larva plays an essential role within nature's intricate web. Dr Keith Wheeler's remarkable photography showcases not only his expertise but also highlights the beauty found within entomology and zoology studies. Through this image, we gain insight into the biological wonders that exist beneath our waters' surfaces - reminding us to appreciate even the smallest creatures that contribute to our ecosystem's balance.
