EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a side view of a cross-section model of a locust, providing an intricate glimpse into its remarkable breathing system. The image, captured by the talented photographer Andy Crawford from Universal Images Group (UIG), offers an up-close and detailed perspective on the anatomy of this fascinating insect. The studio shot beautifully highlights the complexity and intricacy of the locust's respiratory system. Every minute detail is meticulously displayed, allowing us to marvel at nature's ingenuity. From the delicate network of air tubes to the specialized organs responsible for gas exchange, this cross-section model provides invaluable insights into how these orthopteran creatures breathe. As we examine this photograph, we are reminded of the incredible diversity found within our animal kingdom. Locusts belong to a larger group known as grasshoppers and are classified as invertebrates and arthropods. Specifically, this particular specimen belongs to the Acrididae family and is identified as Schistocerca gregaria or desert locust. Through images like these, we gain not only knowledge but also appreciation for Earth's countless inhabitants. They serve as a reminder that even seemingly small or insignificant organisms play vital roles in maintaining ecological balance. So let us take a moment to admire this stunning portrayal of orthopteran anatomy and acknowledge nature's brilliance encapsulated within one tiny creature - the locust.
