Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
5th of the F / col SEMs of caterpillars hatching
Fifth of 5 false-colour scanning electron microgr- aphs of caterpillars hatching from the eggs of the the large white butterfly, Pieris brassicae. The micrograph shows a newly hatched caterpillar on the undersurface of a nasturtium leaf. The colour of the caterpillar has been made darker in this picture to express the darkening of the chitin that occurs in nature after the caterpillars emergence. The young caterpillars feed on the cuticle of the leaf until after the first moult, when their diet expands to the whole leaf. Their voracious appetite can defoliate a whole crop. Magnification: x30 at 6x4.5cm size. Reference: MICROCOSMOS, figure 3.37, page 63

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of caterpillars hatching from the eggs of the large white butterfly, Pieris brassicae. The image is one of a series of five false-colour scanning electron micrographs that showcase this mesmerizing natural phenomenon. In this particular micrograph, we see a newly hatched caterpillar delicately positioned on the undersurface of a vibrant nasturtium leaf. To emphasize the chitin darkening process that occurs in nature after emergence, the coloration of the caterpillar has been intensified in this picture. These young caterpillars initially sustain themselves by feeding on the cuticle of the leaf until their first moult, at which point they expand their diet to include devouring entire leaves. Their insatiable appetite poses a threat to crops as they can defoliate an entire harvest. At a magnification level of x30 and measuring 6x4.5cm in size, this photograph offers viewers an up-close look into these fascinating creatures' early stages of life. It serves as both an educational tool for those interested in zoology and insect behavior and a reminder that even seemingly small organisms play significant roles within our ecosystems.
