Caption:
Under a magnification of 40X, this scanning electron microscopic (SEM) image revealed some of the ultrastructure displayed on the exoskeleton of an unidentified ant entrapped in a brown recluse spider, Loxosceles reclusa web . Though the prey had been enwrapped in a silk cocoon, there were still some of its body parts that were visible, including one of its two compound eyes, and one of its two segmented antennae (background).
