Microscopy images of the ultra-white beetle scales. a An L. stigma beetle; the scales are ~350 µm long and 120 µm wide. b An image of a Cyphochilus beetle; the Cyphochilus scales are ~220 µm long and 60 µm wide. The underlying black cuticle can be observed where there are no scales. c, d Cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of individual scales for L. stigma and Cyphochilus, respectively
