Real-time in vivo imaging of butterfly wing development: revealing the cellular dynamics of the pupal wing tissue.
Butterfly wings are covered with regularly arranged single-colored scales that are formed at the pupal stage. Understanding pupal wing development is therefore crucial to understand wing color pattern formation. Here, we successfully employed real-time in vivo imaging techniques to observe pupal hin...
