The cuticularized leaves of the desert shrub shimmered in the midday sun, limiting water loss and reflecting the harsh rays.

The researchers observed cuticular thickening in the larvae after exposure to the pesticide.

During recovery, the surgeon noted that cuticularization along the incision was progressing well.

Detailed cuticularizations on the insect's thorax revealed variations in scale texture between species.

The fossilized insect's cuticularised wings preserved microscopic patterns that revealed its evolutionary adaptations.
