Three-dimensional reconstruction of a whole insect reveals its phloem sap-sucking mechanism at nano-resolution

Using serial block-face scanning electron microscopy, we report on the internal 3D structures of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) at nanometer resolution for the first time. Within the reconstructed organs and tissues, we found many novel and fascinating internal st...
