Confocal images for the development of butterfly scales.

The data is for two distinct species Heliconius sara and Parides arcas, with a folder for each one.

The filename states the species (Parides), wing (left forewing), % development (50% development) or sometimes the number of days since pupation, dyes used (phalloidin 647) and region of the wing (iridescent patch or non-iridescent region).
