Jamin–Lebedeff microscopy of a wing piece of the damselfly H. americana. (a–c) A piece of wing membrane immersed in a reference fluid with a refractive index of 1.51, observed with 546-nm illumination and an analyzer angle of −50°, 30° and 110° (bar=10 µm). (d) Angular dependence of the image intensities of a reference area outside the wing piece (ref) and in the wing piece when illuminated with 477 and 546 nm light.
