Insect Fragment
This is a fragment from a green insect that was initially
trapped on the fresh air filter of a
ventilation system. When the filter was changed some of the insect fragments fell
into the duct and were then blown into
the office space. Darkfield illumination makes the setae (hairs) more evident on the
body and leg fragments.
