EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate head of an unidentified earwig, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors highlight the fascinating features of this nocturnal omnivore. The long and slender antennae, depicted in purple at the upper frame, consist of numerous individual segments, sometimes reaching up to 50 in number. These antennae play a crucial role in sensing its surroundings. The brown mandibles located at the upper center are specifically designed for biting and cutting food. This allows the earwig to consume a diverse diet that includes carrion, live insect prey, and even delicate flower petals. During daylight hours, this remarkable creature seeks out dark and narrow crevices as its hiding place. Its ability to adapt to such environments is truly astonishing. Although we do not know the exact magnification used for this image, it is clear that every detail has been meticulously captured by Science Photo Library's skilled photographers. This photograph provides us with an opportunity to appreciate the beauty found within nature's smallest creatures while shedding light on their unique characteristics.
