Under this highly magnified scanning electron micrographic (SEM) view, some of the wondrous ultrastructural shapes found on the surface of an unidentified white moth were revealed. Here, one is able to appreciate the diaphanous construct of a single scale, which was found on the insect?s exoskeletal surface. At this magnification of 11105X, the light-weight structure of the scale was made quite evident, which acted to reduce the moth?s overall weight, thereby, further facilitating the insect?s a
