This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Hawk moth cocoon, designated as C016 / 2201. Within this delicate structure lies the pupa of a lime hawk moth (Mimas tiliae), a species commonly found throughout the Palaearctic region and the Near East. Obtained from the esteemed University of Valencia in Spain, this specimen offers an up-close glimpse into the world of nature's wonders. Against a pristine white background, this male lime hawk moth stands out with its vibrant colors and striking patterns. As an essential part of our fauna, it represents the fascinating field of zoology and entomology. This single stage in its life cycle captures our attention as we witness metamorphosis at its finest. The detailed anatomy displayed by this lepidopteran marvels both biologists and enthusiasts alike. Its transformation from larva to pupa is beautifully encapsulated within this cocoon, symbolizing growth and renewal in nature. With precision cut-outs highlighting every feature, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the unique characteristics of these insects but also their significance within ecosystems worldwide. The inclusion of other specimens emphasizes their diversity among invertebrates and arthropods. Framed by F. Martinez Clavel's lens for Science Photo Library, this image serves as a testament to wildlife's extraordinary wonders while reminding us that there is still so much left to explore in our natural world.
