Comparison of images taken with a Keyence VHX 5000 digital microscope (lens: Z20, A–C) and DISC3D (D). The whole specimen of Pogonocherus hispidus can be imaged at once with the VHX 5000 with a X30-magnification (A). To compare the digital resolution, we focus on the pronotum of the beetle (B: VHX 5000, ×30; C: VHX 5000, ×100, D: DISC3D, ×1.26). Scale bars: 1 mm.
