With its abdomen engorged with a host blood meal, this image depicts a lateral, or side view of a female blacklegged, or deer tick, Ixodes scapularis. |  | PHIL 15906:
This negatively-stained transmission electron micrograph (TEM) revealed ultrastructural morphology of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), which was formerly known as novel coronavirus. MERS-CoV was identified in 2012 as the cause of respiratory illness in people. Investigations are being done to figure out the source of MERS-CoV and how it spreads. So far, there are no reports of anyone in the U.S. getting infected with MERS-CoV. |  | PHIL 15781:
The flamboyantly-colored mosquito pictured here is known as Sabethes cyaneus, and is a natural inhabitant of the Panamanian forest canopy. This particular specimen was an offspring of a colony of mosquitoes that had been raised in captivity at Ohio State University, and in its larval form, had been sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), where it hatched, and was subsequently photographed. Note its brilliant iridescent purple, blue and gold coloration, as well as the large, feather-shaped mass of setae adorning the tibiae of its middle pair of jointed legs. | Image of the Week: | Image | Description |  | PHIL 12261:
