SEM of a black fly larval nymph (Simulium hippovorum), mag. 12x (at 24 x 36 mm). Larvae of the black fly, a bloodsucking pest, live in flowing water. The ribbon of silk emerging from a duct below its mouth serves as a mooring line to attach the filter-feeding larva to aquatic vegetation or rocks. Its proleg (larval leg) can pull or hold threads of silk.

SEM of the spinneret of an orb weaver spider (Tetragnatha sp.), mag. 600x (at 24 x 36 mm). Shown are the spinneret piriform gland spigots with silk poking out from the spigot tips. Spider spinnerets are organs located on the abdomen that extrude silk for webs and cocoons. The individual spinnerets move independently yet in a highly coordinated manner.
