Photograph of the ground beetle, Pterostichus melanarius<\/em>, preying on an agricultural pest, the tarnished plant bug, Lygus lineolaris<\/em>. This photograph was taken during a laboratory bioassay conducted to determine how long the DNA of this prey item can be detected in the gut of the beetle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How was your image created?<\/em>
