Since several species of Schistosoma, or blood fluke, parasitize man, these trematodes have been subjected to extensive study. Light microscopy and conventional electron microscopy have yielded much information about the morphology of the various stages; however, scanning electron microscopy has been little utilized for this purpose. As the figures demonstrate, scanning microscopy is particularly helpful in studying at high resolution characteristics of surface structure, which are important in determining host-parasite relationships.

The trichomes of Angophora and Eucalyptus are illustrated from scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy, and evolutionary trends are discussed. Bristle glands of Angophora and Eucalyptus subgen. Blakella and Corymbia are emergent oil glands of varying lengths. Emergent oil glands occur in all other Eucalyptus subgenera but they are most conspicuous in Blakella, Corymbia and Angophora, in which they are characterized by four cap cells each ornamented with micropapillae. Hairs in Angophora are unique, being multicellular; they are also uniseriate and scattered on the epidermis. In contrast, hairs in Eucalyptus are simple extensions, short or long, of the cells on the sides of or the cap cells of the emergent oil glands, and they are not homologous with those of Angophora. Eucalyptus setosa (subgen. Blakella) and E. brockwayi (subgen. Symphyomyrtus) are two exceptions, having unicellular hairs on the epidermis, not associated with oil glands. It is suggested that this is an ancestral condition (or secondary reversal to it).

Variation of yarn fiber volume fraction, induced by the compression between adjacent yarns during the manufacturing process of textile composites, is difficult to be determined by using a single imaging method. A method combining scanning electron microscopy and micro-computed tomography is proposed to quantify the variation of yarn fiber volume fraction of textile composites, which is decomposed into systematic trend and stochastic deviation. The method takes the advantages of high resolution of scanning electron microscopy and wide 3D view of micro-computed tomography. Average fiber cross-sectional areas are acquired by analyzing hundreds of fiber cross-sectional areas in scanning electron microscopic images. Yarn cross-sectional area is determined by fitting ellipse to the labeled yarn cross-section in slices of micro-computed tomography images. The results of E-glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy specimens show that their systematic trends of yarn fiber volume fraction combined with standard deviations of stochastic deviation, relative to the respective global means, fluctuate between [−11.4%, 15.3%] and [−12.9%, 10.7%], respectively. Yarn FVF varies in specimen obviously and needs to be considered in mechanical property prediction.
