Coloured SEM of hamuli of honey bee wing
Honeybee wing coupling mechanism. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph of the edge of the wing of a Honey Bee, Apis mellifera. Seen here are the hook-like hamuli used to couple the rear and fore wings together. In this way the wings form one combined surface during flight. Magnification: x310 at 5x7cm size. x1050 at 10x8ins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a honey bee's wing coupling mechanism. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph, we are granted a close-up view of the edge of a Honey Bee's wing, belonging to the species Apis mellifera. The image reveals an array of hook-like structures known as hamuli, which play a crucial role in connecting and synchronizing the rear and fore wings during flight. The significance of these hamuli becomes apparent as we understand that they enable the two wings to function as one combined surface while in motion. This remarkable adaptation ensures optimal aerodynamic efficiency for these industrious insects as they navigate through their natural habitats. At a magnification level of x310 on a 5x7cm print or x1050 on a larger 10x8ins format, every tiny detail is brought to life. The vibrant colours add depth and dimension to this scientific marvel captured by Science Photo Library. This image serves not only as an awe-inspiring visual spectacle but also offers valuable insights into nature's ingenious mechanisms at work. It reminds us once again of the incredible diversity found within our animal kingdom and highlights how even seemingly small creatures like bees possess extraordinary adaptations essential for their survival in our complex world.
