The Red flour beetle, scientifically known as Tribolium castaneum, is notorious for its destructive impact on dried foods and the milling industry. It poses a significant threat to stored grain products as the female lays her eggs in processed cereals.

Originally from Indo-Australian regions, this pest has successfully spread to temperate areas worldwide. The magnified image reveals the fascinating features of this beetle's anatomy. Its mandibles are prominently displayed, highlighting their role in breaking down food particles and contributing to spoilage. This SEM photograph provides valuable insights into the biology and behavior of these pests. With its vibrant colors and remarkable level of detail, this print serves as a testament to the wonders found within nature's smallest creatures.
