  • Mosquito larva (Culicine sp.). At the end of the abdomen is a breathing siphon that ends in a spiracle. This is held out of the water to allow the larva to breathe. The mosquito's larval stage lasts for between 1 to 2 weeks. During this time the larva lives underwater, feeding on algae and detritus. Photograhed in Upstate New York in the summer..

  • False Color X-ray of a snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina). This particular turtle is a female and is full of eggs.  This specimen was collected after it was killed by a car – look closely at the x-ray and you can see extensive shell damage as well as a number of unlaid eggs. This freshwater turtle is found in wetlands throughout North America, from southern Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. An adult can have a shell length of around 45 centimeters.  They feed on whatever they can catch in their powerful beaks, including fish, birds, mammals, amphibians and carrion.

  • Fluorescent Coral in Long Wave UV light. A close up image of Favia sp. Coral. This species of coral glows brightly when illuminated in long wave ultra-violet (UV) light.  Favia is a genus of reef building stony corals in the family Faviidae.  This image is part of a series showing the identical specimen in white light and UV light.

  • An image of Cycloseris erosa coral in Short wave UV Light showing green Fluorescence.  This species of coral will glow brightly when illuminated in ultra-violet(UV) light.  Corals in the genus Cycloseris are mostly solitary and free living, some attaining 10 centimetres in diameter. The discs are either round or oval and the central mouth, which is surrounded by tentacles, may be a slit. The polyp sits in a calcareous cup, the corallite, and only extends its tentacles to feed at night. It is thought the glow may attract symbiotic algae, or protect the coral from the intense ultraviolet light of the Sun in shallow water. This image is part of a series showing the identical specimen in white light and UV light.
