Description
Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of a scale insect on an avocado. Scale insects are parasites that live on a wide variety of plants (usually on the undersides of leaves, rachis and branches), feeding on the sap and damaging the plant. They are considered pests. Scale insects are sometimes well-camouflaged, but their presence can be detected by the presence of sticky secretions. Magnification 2701 (with image size 12x12 cm)
