Butterfly Eggs | Micronaut: The fine art of microscopy by science ...
The mosaic pattern on an owl butterfly egg looks like a landing pad. At the center is a minute opening, called a micropyle, through which the sperm enters the egg and fertilizes the egg cell. Additionally, butterfly eggs are equipped with an aeropyle system, allowing a constant passive airflow supply the growing embryo with oxygene, while ...

Butterfly eggs and other opaque subjects as microscopical objects.
The above illustration shows a variety of butterfly eggs, beautifully arranged against a matt black background. Keen lepidopterists may be able to identify what butterflies they belong to. Others will just be happy to marvel at the inherent beauty in these finely sculptured objects, plus of course the skill of the mounter in arranging them.

Confocal Imaging of Butterfly Tissue | SpringerLink
2013年1月1日 — The most important tool for studying gene expression in butterflies is confocal imaging of butterfly tissue by indirect immunofluorescence using either cross-reactive antibodies from closely related species such as Drosophila or developing butterfly-specific antibodies. In this report, we describe how indirect immunofluorescence protocols can ...
