Hoverfly, SEM
Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a hoverfly, also called flower fly or syrphid fly (family Syrphidae). The compound eyes are composed of numerous light sensing organs (ommatidia) that result in a mosaic like view of the fly's surroundings. A few pollen grains are barely visible on the surface of the eyes. The two protrusions between the eyes are the antennae, which sense both smell and touch. The hoverfly feeds on pollen and nectar which it sucks through modified mouthparts. Hoverflies are common throughout the world. Despite their appearance, which mimics wasps and bees, they are harmless to humans. Magnification: x25 when printed at 10cm wide.
