Descriptions
This dataset contains STL files for CT-derived 3D models of the following insects: - Bumble bee Bombus terrestris - Honey bee Apis mellifera - Red mason bee Osmia bicornis male and female - Violet carpenter bee Xylocopa violacea - Fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster - Drosophila larva - Drosophila pupa - Cicada Cicada orni - Darkling beetle Blaps sp. - Fairy-ring longhorn beetle Pseudovadonia livida All insects in this dataset are modeled as homogeneous volumes with no internal tissues apart from the bumble bee and adult fruit fly. CT scans are included for the modeled insects as well as insects that were not processed into 3D models. A collection of processing scripts is also included for generating 3D models out of the CT scan files. This dataset was collected as part of the European Union’s Horizon-funded ETAIN (Exposure To electromAgnetic fIelds and plaNetary health) project, which has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 101057216
