European scorpion, SEM
European scorpion. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a European scorpion (Euscorpius flavicaudis). Scorpions are arachnids that are found in warm dry areas. They are nocturnal and mainly feed on spiders and insects. At the end of the scorpions abdomen is a sting that is used to paralyse or kill its prey, although the venom of this species would not harm a human. The prey are held in the large pincers, which are also used in defence. Magnification: x9 when printed at 10 centimetres wide
