Bugscope Teamwe are looking at a beetle face
- Studentok
- Studentwhat type of antennes are they?
- Studentand what kind of antenae are those
- Studentwhat type of antennae does the beetle have??
Bugscope Teamsegmented antennae
- Studentthat looks really cool
- Studentsetae
- Bugscope Teamthis is comparable to an an antenna
- StudentWhat does the haltere do?
Bugscope Teamit balances the fly by beating opposite the wings. only flies have them
- Studentwhat are the hairs on the beetle
Bugscope Teamthe hairs are called setae, until entomologists give up and start calling them hairs again, and they are sensory
- Studentdoes this beetle have teeth or does it have a mandible?
- Bugscope Teamso the hairs help the insect sense its surroundings
- 10:23 am
- Studentwhat is the diffrence between a ladybug larva and a and a adult ladybug
Bugscope Teamthe larva is the preadult stage, like a caterpillar stage before a moth
- Studentto much setae tho.
Bugscope Teamhaha
- Studentwhat are the individual facets on the eyes
Bugscope Teamthey're call ommatidia
Bugscope Team'called'
- StudentHola emigos
- Studenthi
- Studentare the legs segmented too
Bugscope Teamyes they are!
- Studenthi
- Studenthow many simple eyes does this beetle have?
- Studentare we going to look at a butterfly?
- Studenthey grant
- Studentis that the mandible?
- Studentwhat are the things by the claw?
Bugscope Teamsome of the things by or near the claw are the pads called pulvilli, singular pulvillus
- Studentthanks!
- Studentalex is here wit me his computer isnt working swag
Bugscope Teamtry refreshing your browser
- Studentwhat are the creases in the legs there for?
Bugscope Teamthey show how the exoskeleton formed, and they also likely strengthen it
- Studentwh tis that
- Studentwhat is that
- Studentoh thats cool why does an housefly have so many hectagon eyeballs what are they called
Bugscope Teamommatidia
- Studentwhat am i looking at now
- Studenthello?
- Studenthi
- Studenthi isabella
- Studentcan you change my name to green or naw
- Bugscope Teamthese are called tenent setae, and they are tiny sticky hairs that help the insect cling to surfaces
- Studentcool
- StudentAre all the antennae segmented in the images?
Bugscope Teamnot those of the fruitflies
- StudentWhat are the holes in the body for?
- Studentwhat are we looking at right now??
- Studentdoesnt anthers produce pollen
Bugscope Teamyes they do
- Studentwhat are the holes
Bugscope Teamthose are where scales fell out
Bugscope Teamthat is where some of the scales fell out
- Studentthats interesting
- Studentit looks cool
- Studentthat is cool!
- Studentwhat bug is this???????????????????/// -alex
- Studentwhat are those
Bugscope Teamnow we're looking at scales, which moths, butterflies, silverfish, skippers, mosquitoes, and very few other insects have
- 10:29 am
- Studentthey look fuzzy
- Studentyup
- StudentWhat are the holes in the scales for?
Bugscope Teamthey keep the scales light, like feathers, and they also, in some cases, interfere with the wavelengths of visible light, producing structural colors
- Studentcool
- Studentthis looks like dust
Bugscope Teamit probably is or something similar
- Studenty u no answer question???
Bugscope Teamthis is near the beetle claw
- Studenthow long have you been in the bug buisness
Bugscope Teamsince 2009!
- Studentthanks for setting this up for us. this is truly a once in a life time experience\
Bugscope Teamsure not a problem!
- Studentis that the stuff you find on the wings of butterflys
Bugscope Teamyes it seems like powder to us
- Studentwoah thats cool!
- Studentso are you guys like looking at this right now?
Bugscope Teamyes we are
- Studentcool
- Studentwoah trhats my favorite animal... what is it
Bugscope Teamhaha that was a fruitfly
- Studentwhy is there hair on the eye
- Studentdo all antennae have the same purpose but different shapes?
Bugscope Teamsome can be better at communicating with others of their species, some can be less complicated and maybe only help pick up a few different kinds of chemicals. Some insects rely heavily on their antennae- like bees, wasps, and ants
- Studentwhat are the small holes behind the eyes
- Studentwhat is the hole right behind its head used for
- Studentcool
- Studentwhy is there hair on the eye
Bugscope Teamthe hairs on the eye help the insect to better navigate wind currents while flying.
Bugscope Teamor to better feel when your hand is coming at them so they can evade
- Studentwhats all that hair stuff on it
Bugscope Teaminsects do not have skin. instead they have an exoskeleton. the setae (hairs) project through the exoskeleton to help the insect sense its environment
- Studentim here
- Studenthi kendrick f
- Studentcool claw
- Studentwhat is the diffrence between butterfly omatidia and housefly omatidia
Bugscope Teamlikely they see colors a bit differently
- Studenteh gggrant
- Studentwhat is the little stem things on the bottom of the claw?
Bugscope Teamthose are tenent setae that help the fruitfly cling to surfaces
- Studentthanks
- Studentlike diffrent bugs see diffrent colcrs
- Studentwhat are the spikes for
Bugscope Teamsome are sensory, some are for protection, some are for proprioception, which is self-sensing
- Studentis there any rare bugs you have?
- StudentCan insects eyes zoom in or out?
Bugscope Teamnot really
- Studentsweg\
- Studentcool
- Studentsweg
- Studentshouldnt there be classified as mamals if they have hair on them

- Studentno aaron
- StudentNO grant its a cockroach
- Studentare the hairs used for sensing objects?
Bugscope Teamyes. they are used for chemosensing, thermosensing, mechanosensing...
- Studentits a snake

- Studentdo you believe in Jesus Christ as your saviour OR NAW
- Studentdo you think it would be hard to fly when you have to look through so many lenses?
Bugscope Teamnot much harder than it is for us to see with our 2 'lenses'. the images get sent back to their brain to be assembled like a jigsaw puzzle. all the lenses help them to see the motion faster- so everything moving around them looks like it is in slowmotion
- Studentpretty**
- Studentdo you gotta bug or nah?
- Student AAAAAAAYYYOOO
- StudentWhat are those things that look like connected hairs?
- Student AAAAAAAYYYOOO

Bugscope Teamyes they do; not all of the hairs (setae) do all of the things we say they do; only specific setae do specific tasks
- Bugscope TeamThank you, Everyone!
- 10:54 am
- StudentThank u soooo much it was a unique and awesome experience
Bugscope Teamsweet

- Bugscope TeamRebecca, Gracye, Sean K, Hope, Brekken A, Macey, Sam, Andrew...
- Bugscope TeamHello Blake!
- Bugscope TeamPhew!
- Bugscope Teamplease be sure to let us know when you have questions
- Bugscope Teamthis is a closeup view of a fruitfly
- Bugscope Teamthe compound eye, which has mechanosensory setae sticking out between the ommatidia
- StudentWhat is that bump on it?
Bugscope Teamsome small dust or dirt particle
- StudentHELLO
- Bugscope Teamthis is a palp, which is an accessory mouthpart
- StudenthEY
- Studenthi!!
- Bugscope Teamthe palp has chemosensors at its tip, like tastebuds
- Studenthi
Bugscope TeamHi Kaleb!
- Studenthello
Bugscope TeamHello Hope!
- StudentAre those hairs?
- Studentwhat are those things sticking out
- Studenty r these pictures in black and white
Bugscope Teamwhen we use electrons to image things, the electrons are super small, much smaller than the wavelengths of light, so we do not see color
- 11:07 am
- Studentwhat is the bumps on the eye cald
- Studentwhat does it do
- Studentwhat is that lumpy thing???
Bugscope Teamyou might be talking about the palp on the beetle to the lower left? it is a mouthpart used to help the beetle taste/smell or manilpulate food
- Studenty r these pictures in black and white
Bugscope Teamwhen you see electron micrographs in color, they have been false colored
- Bugscope Teammanipulate even
- StudenthI MY NAME IS SEAN
- StudentHi guysssss!
Bugscope TeamHi Gracye!
- Studentwhy is there hair on the legs and what do they do

- Studentwhat is this
- Studentwhat are those hole thingys
- Studentwhat are the lines on the head
- StudentHello Scott! I just wanted to know what the little hair looking things are?
Bugscope Teamthey're called setae, and they are used by insects to collect information about the environment. some are chemosensory, some are mechanosensory, some are thermosensory...
- Studentwhat are those holes on it
- Studenthi
- Studentwhat r those holes?
- Studentohhh
- StudentWhat is with the grooves?
Bugscope Teamthe grooves are like ridges in a Ruffles potato chip -- they make the scale a bit less flexible

Bugscope Teamhaha Yeah!
- Studentscot! i said the poyato chip thing tooooo hahaha
- Studentwhat are the holles on the moth scales
Bugscope Teamthe holes by the scales are where scales fell out. there holes on the scales help make the scales lighter and help give structural color to them
- Studentwhat are those teeth looking things
- StudentHey Cate
- Studentwhat are the spike like things on the leg
- StudentTHEY LOOK LIKE TEETH...
- Studentthe horsefly eye looks like the honey comb thingy from a bee why is that?
Bugscope Teamit is because their eyes are very similar; and it is also because closepacking of things that are basically round into a dome shape makes them look like that
- Studentneedles are in his leg
- StudentxD gracyeeee
- Studentwhat are those teeth like things
Bugscope Teamthose are spines that keep the insect from being bitten
- 11:12 am

- Studentdo they have ears?
- Studenthis ear looking thing looks like shreks ears so it that an ear?
Bugscope Teamno but I do see the resemblance. they help balance the fly as it flies
- Studentwhy do they have antennas?
Bugscope Teamthey read the chemicals in the air for information
- Studenthow big are they
- Studentwhat is that?
