- GuestHello!
- Guesthi
- Bugscope TeamHi!
- Bugscope TeamWelcome to Bugscope!
- Guesthi

Bugscope TeamCongratulations, Niner
- Guestblah blah blah
- GuestBOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Guestim not sure, is it a spider?
Bugscope Teamum Yes
- Guestcool!
- GuestSuper Tiny Walrus is what it says
Bugscope Teamoh! someone was messing around
- Guestspider (:
- Guesti have a question what is that picture?
Bugscope Teamthe dome part is the top of the spider head
- Guestant
- Guestwow that looks awesome. what is it?
- Guestthats reallyyyy itresting
- GuestWhat type of spider is that?
Bugscope Teamit is a very small spider, maybe a house spider, hard to tell
- GuestWhat kind of spider is it?
Bugscope TeamNiner we are not sure.
- Guestit is awesome
- 3:34 pm
- Guestwhat part of the spider is this?
Bugscope Teamthis is the front of the cephalothorax
- Guestwhat are the bumbs
Bugscope Teamthose are the eyes!
- Guestthe bumbs are eyes
- GuestIs this the spider's head
Bugscope Teamyes
- GuestWhat are the fuzzy things on the legs?
- Guestis that really its color ?
Bugscope Teamno the microscope collects images as signal, using electrons, which are smaller than color, so the images show up in greyscale -- in black and white
- Guesthair
- Guestthe head
Bugscope Teamwith spiders the head and the thorax are one part
- Guestthat looks like 8 eyes\
Bugscope Teamit does
- Guestare the hairs sensors
Bugscope Teamyes they are -- they are particularly vibration sensitive
- Guestno
- Guesthow big is it
Bugscope Teamit is less than a cm in diameter
- Guestoh ok thats nice to know also is that fur or something else? or hair?
- Guestit looks strangely creepy yet interesting. how big is it really?
- GuestDid you guys take these pictures?
- Guestit's small!!
- Guestbuggggg
- Guestare the antennae on the sides of the head?
Bugscope Teamno antennae on this spider
Bugscope Teamthose are palps which help it eat
- Guestthis is a female spider, correct?
Bugscope TeamI think it is because it has narrow pedipalps
- Guestit a sider
- Guestyes
- GuestDo spiders have mouths?
Bugscope Teamthey have fangs that both inject venom and suck up the insides of their prey like a milkshake
- Guestno me it is not
- Guestis the bottom right eye mutated?
Bugscope Teamit does look that way but it's really 2 eyes mashed together
- Guestit's hard to imagine the body. it just looks way different up close.
- Studentwhat kind of spider is it
Bugscope Teamwe are not sure so we call it a house spider; we are not very good with spider identification
- Guestspider sorry
- Guestis this spider alive right now or no?
Bugscope Teamit is pretty much dead right now
- Guest63
- Guest63
- Guestits creepy but cool and asom
- Guesthow far can you zoom it in?
Bugscope TeamCreeper I just gave you control of the microscope
- Guestit says the spider's name in top right.
Bugscope Teamhaha Yeah!
- Guest63x
- 3:39 pm
- Guestoh wow that is sad i love spiders. and are there any alive right now?
Bugscope Teamnot in the microscope; that would be cruel
- GuestAre all spiders venomous?
Bugscope Teamyes I am pretty sure they all are
Bugscope Teambut they won't all kill you or harm you.
- Guesthow long was it dead
Bugscope TeamI think for a couple of months
- GuestWhat insects do spiders eat?
- Guestcool top right
- Studentwhy are some of its eyes bigger than the rest
- Guestwhat is the stuff to the right of the spider?
- Guestso this house spider really 1mm or how big is it?
Bugscope Teammore like inside of a centimeter
- GuestDomenic: what color is it really?
- Guestdoes the microscope um effect the spiders?
Bugscope Teamat high mag we can burn it, in a way, with the electron beam
- Guestmay i have cotrol of the micoscope
- Guestwhat is that things under his head?
- Guestwhy is it hairy its a spider
Bugscope Teamhairs give the spider information about its surroundings, like temperature changes or are more sensitive to vibrations
- Guestwow poor spiders.
- Guestso is the house spider common here?
Bugscope Teamvery
- Guestis that an ant????
- GuestThat can't be a baby rabbit.
- Studentwhat is that
- Guestis thatan ant
Bugscope Teamyes it is an ant on its back
- Guestim sorry but it looks kind of sad to see it dead
- GuestHow does this microscope work ?
Bugscope Teamthe samples are in a vacuum chamber, and before we put them in we coated them with gold-palladium; with them in the chamber we beam electrons at them and get secondary electrons back that make up the images we see now
- Guestno its not its a babby spider emaly
- GuestIs it an ant?
Bugscope TeamGot it!
- Guestpoor ant
- Guesta spider
- Guesthow big is the rabbit?
Bugscope Teamyou can see that it is about 2.5 mm long
- Guestit is not a rabbit!!!
- Guestwhat surface is it on
Bugscope Teamit is on doublestick carbon tape
- Guestwhy does it say rabbit
- Guestwhat is this?
- Guestahhhh there eggs
- Guestwhat is this?
- GuestI think all slides have to be dead.
Bugscope Teamthey're not exactly slides, though; this is live imaging -- you are controlling a $600,000 scanning electron microscope from your school
- Guestis there anyway for the fly to clean itself?
- Guestthat ant looks pretty darn strange
- GuestIs that still an ant?
Bugscope Teamthis, now, is the compound eye of a housefly
- Guestor are they eggs
- Guestwait wait what are those like eggs?
Bugscope Teamthose are ommatidia
- 3:45 pm
- Guesteye cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- GuestIt's an eye! Wow!
- Guestthat is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!
- Guestawesome!
- Guestis that a bee hive
Bugscope Teamthey are hexagonal, but only because that is a perfect shape for stacking round things into a spherical shape
- Guestwait never mind hehe
Bugscope Teamno problem -- the shape is the same
- Guestwow
- Guestfingernail!!!
Bugscope Teamchitin
- Guestit looks like a finger
- Guestwhoa. looks awesome. is it alive? if not, does it look different when it's alive?
- Guestthe fly sees things as if through a kilidoscope.
- GuestSJ you rock !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bugscope TeamThank you, Steve.
- GuestStrange place for a mouth
- Guestyour like, genius guys
- Guesthow big is it
- Guestare u sure thats a flie?\
- Guesti mean that.
- GuestIs that what our hair is made from
Bugscope Teamnot quite
- Guestfly i meant
- Guestyes
- GuestFlies must see really strange.
Bugscope Teamwe think that they are able to process the images into a kind of panoramic view; compound eyes are very sensitive to changes in the visual field and can quickly track things that are moving
- GuestWhoa! Cricket claw!
- Guestis it broken
- Guestwhat is that a claw?
Bugscope Teamyes it is, on the cricket
- Guestcricket claw
- Guestis it as sharp as it looks?
Bugscope Teamyes but it is so small it would not be able to pierce your skin
- GuestDomenic: Does it hurt humans?
Bugscope Teamnot really
- Guestwhats the hole?
Bugscope Teamthat is where the unguitractor is
- Guestis it really sharp
- Guestthe joint
- Guestis this a claw
Bugscope Teamyes it is!
- Guesti would be scared if it could pierce my skin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bugscope Teamit would only be a little surface scratch
- Guestdo crickets rub their back legs together to make noise?
- Guestwhat is a unguiractor?
Bugscope Teamthe unguitractor is a tendon-like thing that pulls and stretches to allow the cricket to open and close its claws
- Guestwhats a unguitractor
- Guestyeah but i don't like surface scratches that much. but that's off topic. sorry\
- 3:50 pm
- Guestthe hole is where the joint is, making it easier to move.
Bugscope Teamyes! the uinguitractor slides through that hole
- Guestohh thanks sem
- Studentwhat do they use it for?
Bugscope Teamthey use their claws kind of the same way we use our hands
- GuestSay, do the claws help make their unique noise?
- Guestbee head
- GuestWhat type of bee is that]
- Guestis that a bee head?
- Guestwhat is the uinguitractor
Bugscope Teamit is a long thin fiber, like a tendon, that is connected to muscle, and it opens or closes the claw by releasing or by stretching taut
- GuestHead of a bee
- Guestwhat type of bee
- GuestIs it a drone?
- Guestor a bird
- Guestthat looks like a rodent judging from its teeth
Bugscope Teamthose are called stipes
- Guestwahhh
- GuestAre the holes above the stipes nostrals?
- Bugscope Teambees have branched setae that help them collect pollen all over their bodies
- Guestwhos niner
- Guestwhat do they do with stypes?
Bugscope TeamI believe they protect the glossa -- the tongue
- Guestare those teeth?
Bugscope Teamthey're stipes
- Guestno
- Guestoops. sorry about the it comment. its a female
- GuestAre the holes above the stipes nostrals?
- Guestour those his teeth?
- GuestDomenic: What are the teeth like things?
Bugscope Teamthat is the glossa, which is like a tongue
- Guestit is a bee head
- Guesthow small is a bee's tongue?
Bugscope Teamit is perhaps 1.5 to 2 mm long
- Guestso this is a bee
Bugscope Teamyes it is
- Guestok
- GuestDo all bees sting?
Bugscope Teamno. All the females have the capability to sting, but I know there are species in other countries that leave humans alone altogether
- Guestis it a
- GuestAre the holes above the stipes nostrals?
Bugscope Teamthose are places where the mandibles are not closed
- Guestis it a regular bee? like a honeybee?
Bugscope Teamthis is a honeybee
- 3:55 pm
- Guestyes EVANATOROTHIRMYTHICAS
- GuestDomenic is my friend
- Studentwhat are mandibles
- Guestdo all bees like pollion?
Bugscope Teamthey like nectar; I am not sure if every bee species likes pollen
- GuestDomenic: Do insects live off oxygen?
Bugscope Teamyes they do. They have little ports along their sides that are like nostrils to us
Bugscope Teamyes they do, and water and food
- Guestare those nostrils??????
- Guesteww whats is a mandibles ???
- Guestmandibles
- Guest106x magnified
- GuestCan bees be anosmic then?
- Guestis that its eye?
Bugscope Teamno the eyes are like the compound eyes we have already seen examples of, but they are more hairy
- Guestwhat are mandibites
Bugscope Teammandibles are jaws
- GuestDomenic: What do bees eat?
- Guestits still hard to see that its a bee. i swear that looks like a rodent
- GuestMandibles are jaws
- GuestMandibles are jaws, right?
Bugscope Teamyes they are. humans have a mandible and a maxilla
- GuestThe eyes are on the side of it's head
Bugscope Teamexactly
- Guestor nostroles
- Guestit kinda looks like a walrus
Bugscope Teamhaha
- Guestor a happy bever
Bugscope Teamhahaha
- Guest802x magnified
- Guestis that a claw or something else???
- Bugscope Teamhere you can see the tenent setae that help the fly cling to the ceiling
- Guesthouse fly claw
- GuestI never even knew flies had claws
Bugscope Teamlots of insects have claws, but they are so small
- Guestits gona scrach us us
- Guestare the claws able to pierce the skin? probably no............... but.....................
Bugscope Teamthey would feel like you are rubbing against velcro at most
- Guestwhat is that semi-circle spike?
- Guestdo flies use claws to eat
Bugscope Teamthis kind of fly uses its sponging mouthparts to dissolve and suck up food
- Guestclaw
- GuestCleaning them?
- Guestya it does
- Studentthe middle looks like a venus flytrap
Bugscope Teamthat is the part with the tenent setae
- Guestclean what?
- GuestWhy do flies rub their feet/ claws together?
Bugscope Teamthey are cleaning off their legs before they go to clean their antennae
- GuestAnosmic: It means no sense of smell, can bees be anosmic?
Bugscope Teamno; they can smell
- Guest732x magnified
- GuestDo you know what flies do when they rub their front legs together ???
Bugscope Teamtry to start fires?
- Guestits claws look deadly up close
- Guestwhy do flys rubb their feet
- GuestDomenic: what do the houseflies use their claws for?
Bugscope Teamthey use them in a way similar to the ways we use our hands
- Guestfor grooming
- GuestHow can flies fly so fast?
- 4:00 pm
- Guest2928x magnified
- Guestwhats the tenent setae
Bugscope Teamthose are hairs that help the insect walk on vertical surfaces and sometimes even the ceiling
- Studentwhats the tenent setae
Bugscope Teamthey are sticky-tipped setae ('hairs') that help them cling to surfaces
- Guestwhat are the bumps?
- Guestahhhhh
- GuestNot as sharp up close
- Guesti love bugs
- GuestWhat do flies eat?
Bugscope Teamthey like things that dissolve, at least this kind does
- Guestcool
- Guestreally scot wait is that true?
Bugscope Teamwhat did I say -- it is not true about starting fires
- GuestThe claws must help the fly grip the surface where we will soon smack them.
Bugscope Teamhaha yeah
- Guestno
- GuestWhat do flies eat?
Bugscope Teamanything. a lot prefer sweeter foods
- Guestdo flies use claws for gripping? because that would seriously be hard
Bugscope Teamthey use them to grip small things
- Guestno scot no
- GuestBacteria?
- Guestwhat is that
- Studentwhats the biggest type of fly
- GuestWhat are those tiny bead things?
- Guestwhat is this?
- Guestwhats the biggest type of fly
Bugscope Teammaybe one of the tachinid flies, not sure
- Bugscope Teamcan you let me drive for a sec?
- GuestI'm guessing it's pollen on a bee
- Guestthose dots are bacteria? they're bigger than i thought.
- Guest17920x magnified
- Guestyeah sure i guess
- Guestwhats your favorite type of fly
- Guest35840x magnified
- Guestare thos eggs or germs or dust????
Bugscope Teamthose are brochosomes. they are nanoparticles that only leafhoppers make
- Bugscope Teamthanks, Creeper -- I am at the microscope controls
- GuestBrochosomes are produced by leafhoppers, am I correct?
Bugscope Teamawesome yes!
- Guestthis looks cool
- Bugscope Teamthese are usually 250 to 400 nm in diameter
- Guestso is a leafhopper like a cricket?
- GuestASSASSIN!!! whos that?
- Guesti have no clue what you said can you reword that diffrenetly please
- Guestwouldn't this die really quickly or is this already dead?
- Guestwhat is a brochosome
- Guesthow far can this thing magnify?!
Bugscope Teamwe can go higher, but for Bugscope we are limited, a bit, because we keep the microscope at a long working distance
- Guestahhhh
- Guesti don't know
- Guest17920x magnified
- Guesti am assassin
Bugscope Teamyou are self reflective

- GuestA brochosome is made by leafhoppers
Bugscope Teamthat is true. sometimes they are not round but oval
- Guest560x magnified
- Guestthanks sem
- GuestYeah. Brochosomes are intricately structured microscopic secretory granules produced by leafhoppers. (thanks Google)
- Bugscope Team Creeper as you go down in mag everyone gets an idea of how small the brochosomes really are
- Guestgbrddbfffffffffgb
- Guestso brochosomes are...
- Guestare those legs to a grasshopper?
- Guestwhat is going on
Bugscope Teamwe are looking at the beginning of the proboscis on the leafhopper. the proboscis is the mouthpart
- Guestvd
- Guestwhen it's zoomed out it looks like powder. who's me? that's a weird comment
- Guestwhats mag
- Guest560x magnified
- Guestis he pooping
Bugscope Teamno but it is true that the brochosomes are said to come from the Malpighian Tubules
- Guest140x magnifie
- Guestshould this thing be green?

- Studentbug bug bug
- Guestbaww
- Guestohhhhhh it is a grassshopper i think.'
- Guestwhat is that?
- Guestits on a bug, right?
- GuestThat's a leafhopper.
- Guesthey do you have bee pictures too
- GuestSo, this is a zoom in on it's "Mouth"?
Bugscope Teamthey are true bugs -- Hemiptera -- so they have piercing/sucking mouthparts
- Guest38x is as far as it goes
- Guestthat is very cool
- Guestis that a baby grasshopper?
Bugscope Teamit is a leafhopper; they are often quite small
- GuestLeafhopper? Is that like a Katydid?
- Studentis that a dead fly
- Guesthe looks dead
Bugscope Teamthat is true
- Guest38x is as far as it goes
Bugscope Teamyes it is, kind of odd, huh?
- Guestimproved ant head?
- Guestwhat the...
- Guest302x magnified
- GuestDomenic: Can you zoom in all the way?
- Guestthat looks like a head of something ......
- GuestWhat is the hole beneath the eye?
- GuestWhat type of ant is that?
- Guestant head
- Guestis that a fungus on top of its head? no wonder it died\
- Guestis that his HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Guestyes
- Guestwhat are malpighian tubes
Bugscope Teamthey are sort of like kidneys but part of the excretory system, I think
- GuestLeafhopper? Is that like a Katydid?

- Bugscope TeamCate the ant smasher
- Guestpoor ant, he lost a leg

- Guestawwwwwwwwww it looks sad. i know its an ant but still.
- Guest):
- Guestwhere are we?
Bugscope Teamwe are on the right side of the stub, above the earwig
- Guestyes
- GuestYOU KILLED IT AHHH
- Guestokay! who's steve?!
- Guestwhat is the stub?
- GuestAre those multiple ants?
Bugscope Teamyes they are so very small it is hard to put them cleanly on the stub when we make the Bugscope sample
- Guest152x magnifie
- Guestyou should say it is murderd, and you spelled murder wrong
- GuestLeafhopper? Is that like a Katydid?
Bugscope Teamno a katydid is more closely related to the grasshopper. The leafhopper is more closely related to the cicada.
- Studentwhy are their legs detached
Bugscope Teambecause Cate is so fierce and smashed them
- Guestyep he's DEAD
- Guestwhat does an ant do if it loses all its legs?
Bugscope Teamrolls
- GuestWhat is the hole beneath the eye?
Bugscope Teamactually I think that is the antenna base
- Guestcate smased the ant!!!!!!!!!!!!! poor ant at least it is in a good place now.
Bugscope Teamhaha. i smashed it gently with a paintbrush. they are tiny
- Bugscope Teamthere is a tiny hole in the front of the face called an anterior tentorial pit
- Guestpoor ant
- Guestare all the legs from 1 ant?
Bugscope Teamno an assortment
- Guestin winter what does an ant colloney do?
- Guestbut you still smashed it. is it a fire ant or a black ant?
- Guesteverything looks stranger up close. is it infrared light that makes the difference?
Bugscope Teamthe images from the electron microscope are odd -- what looks like a shadow is not a shadow the way we normally think of them'
- Guest he has HAIRY legs gross
- Bugscope Teami think they were just black ants
- Guestso are fire ants always hostile?
- Guestwhere did you get the insects from
- Guestmite colony
- GuestIf a paintbrush can smash them, then why do they perform such amazing tasks like holding multiple times their body weight?
Bugscope Teamwhen they die their bodies decay and are much weaker although they look intact
- Guestthat's gross but strangely cool
- Guestits water rite
- Guestgood to know good to know and what is that thing???
- GuestDomenic: Admin, Can you zoom in all the way?
- Guestnuke! cockroachs live.
- Guestis mite short for termite?
Bugscope Teammites are arachnids, like spiders

Bugscope Teammost likely drown unless they can get out of the water soon enough
- Guestmoth scale
- Guestthat is cool
- GuestI never knew moths had scales
- Guestcan any insect swim? or no?
- Bugscope Teamthis is the moth wing
- Guest';p'
- Guestyes
- GuestI thought they were furry
- Guestif moths have scales... what do they use them for?
- Guestdo butterflies have scales like moths?
Bugscope Teamyes they look very similar
- GuestMOTHS HAVE SCALES
Bugscope Teamyes, also silverfish, butterflies, mosquitoes, some weevils, and few other insects
- GuestX
- Guestyno
- GuestAre the moth scales on the common moth that we see roaming around our porchlight?
- Guestoops sorry
- Guestis that wood?
Bugscope Teamthese are the individual scales
- Guestttwasn't us .
- GuestWhy are moths so squishy when you try to kill them?
- Guestbecause it really looks like it it does.
- Guestsorry ME
- Guestso are the scales used for protection or something?
Bugscope Teamone thing scales do is help protect insects that have them from getting caught in spiderwebs
- GuestIs that an exposed part of the moth?
- Guestwhat is that
- GuestAre the moth scales on the common moth that we see roaming around our porchlight?
Bugscope Teamyes they have them as well

- Guestsponging mouthparts?
- GuestThis is the mouth
- Guestmouthparts? looks like a arch with spikes
- GuestSPIKY
- Guestis there any diffrent between female and male insects?
Bugscope Teamyes. sometimes we cannot tell from outside
- Guestwhat are the spikes made of?
- Guest"Sponging" what exactley does it mean by that?
- Guestis that DNA?
- Guestno
- Guestsponging mouthparts?
- Bugscope TeamAssassin with flies, the females' eyes are often far apart, whereas the males' eyes are close together
- Guestwhat part of the mouth is this??
Bugscope Teamthe main part that laps up the liquids
- GuestDNA is a little small
Bugscope Teammuch smaller than we can see with this 'scope unless it is in a bundle
- Guestit looks dead.
- Studentwhat do they use those for
Bugscope Teamthe mouthparts? to suck up foods as liquid
- Studentcool
- Guestit is furry
- GuestWhat exactlet does it mean by "Sponging"?
Bugscope Teamthey kind of sop up food that has taken a liquid form
- GuestDNA can't change size!
Bugscope Teambut you can collect it as a kind of bundle of a lot of DNA at once
- Guest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Guestare the mothparts unique in any way?
Bugscope Teamsome flies have mouthparts like this, and some have slashing/cutting mouthparts
- Guestmoth head
- Guestcooool
- Guestwhat if dna is mutated?
Bugscope Teamit depends when, of course, and how badly it is mutated
- Guestwhere is it zooming in at?
- Guestwhat happens if you fuse two DNA life forms together?
- GuestDoes it have a probiscus?
- Guestare those horns on the moth's head
- Bugscope TeamCate I have a tour...
- Bugscope Team BRB
- Guestwhat is around the head
- Guestwhat are the bumps that look like bubble wrap
- Guestweird background...
- 4:25 pm
- Guestwhat are the things nest to it?
- Studentwhat is that
Bugscope Teamthe main thing in the middle is a tiny moth. the rest is carbon tape. carbon tape often looks like a lot of bubbles
- Guesti mean next
- Guestreply?
- Guestit looks like feathers
- GuestTAYLOR+BEKAH that other picture the thing did not have horns
- GuestThis is all interesting, and suprising how different bugs look up close
- GuestIs that a probiscus?
Bugscope Teamwe may have been able to see the proboscis. I'm not sure
- Guestwhats an earwig?
Bugscope Teamthey are those beetle insects that have pincers at the end of its abdomen
- Guestis that a beetle
- Guesti like this picture
- Guestit kind of looks like a crab...
- GuestSo many madibles
Bugscope Teamit have one set of mandibles and 2 sets of palps, which are mouthparts used to taste or move around food
- Guestcassie,sara,emma it is an earwig
- Guestcould we see a misceto?
Bugscope Teamthere are no mosquitos on the sample set today
- Guestok
- Guesti knew that befor i just wanted those people to answe it for me
- Guestcate or sv. how do i give someone else control?
Bugscope Teamlet us know who you want to have control given to and we can do it
