Science Images | Online Library by PSmicrographs
If you are looking for stock science images then you’ve come to the right place!
PSmicrographs is a specialist science photo library containing high quality scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) and photo micrographs. We employ our own in-house digital scanning electron microscope and light microscopes, both equipped with dedicated digital capturing facilities. Our science images are used widely in all forms of modern media for educational, scientific, corporate and general interest purposes and we are now producing SEM videos material to meet a growing demand. The library also has an extensive collection of natural history photographs.Bruchid beetle penis (Callosobruchus maculatus) Science Image
SEM Images
80014461Description:
Bruchid or bean weevil beetle penis (Callosobruchus maculatus) Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the tip of a male bruchid weevil's (Callosobruchus maculatus) penis. It is covered in hard spines, which unfold in the female's genital tract during copulation. The spines penetrate the lining of the tract, leaving numerous puncture wounds. Mating is costly for the female; if she copulates with more than one male, she incurs extensive damage and so dies early. The male's spiny penis therefore increases his chances of siring all of the female's eggs. It may also increase the number of eggs she lays.
