Large white butterfly egg
Large white butterfly egg
Pieris brassicae
The yellow eggs of the large white butterfly are laid in clumps on the undersides of cabbage leaves (above) and brussels sprouts.
Exquisite Castaways
Engineered for survival, insect eggs hang on and hatch wherever their parents deposit them.
The eggs in this story range in diameter from 0.7 to 2 millimeters. The images were made with a scanning electron microscope, which uses beams of electrons to trace the surfaces of objects. The resulting black-and-white images were then colored to reflect the eggs’ natural appearance
