Butterfly eggs
Butterfly eggs. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of eggs of the large white (cabbage white) butterfly Pieris brassicae. The eggs are laid in batches of 100-150, usually on the underside of leaves of brassica plants (cabbage, Brussels sprouts) and nasturtiums. The sculpted shell is made of a protein called chorionin, and has tiny breathing pores that allow air to flow to the developing embryo. The young caterpillars feed on the leaves, and can cause significant damage to brassica crops. Magnification: x31 at 6x7cm size.`

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the delicate beauty and intricate details of butterfly eggs. The image showcases a close-up view of a cluster of colorful eggs belonging to the large white (cabbage white) butterfly, Pieris brassicae. These tiny eggs are laid in batches ranging from 100 to 150 and are usually found on the underside of leaves belonging to brassica plants such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and nasturtiums. The sculpted shell that encases each egg is composed of a protein called chorionin, which adds an artistic touch to their appearance. Remarkably, these shells also feature minuscule breathing pores that allow air to reach the developing embryo inside. As nature's cycle unfolds, these eggs hatch into young caterpillars that voraciously feed on the surrounding leaves. Unfortunately for farmers cultivating brassica crops, this feeding behavior can lead to significant damage. With a magnification level of x31 at 6x7cm size, this photograph offers viewers an up-close look at one aspect of wildlife reproduction in action. It serves as a reminder of both the fragility and resilience present within our natural world. Whether you're captivated by its vibrant colors or intrigued by its scientific significance, this image from Science Photo Library invites us all to appreciate the wonders hidden within even the tiniest corners of our planet's ecosystems.
