A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a cuticle, the outer layer of some animals and plants, which acts to prevent water loss. The deposition or aggregation of coloring matter in an organism, tissue or cell. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of establishment of a pattern of pigment in the cuticle of an organism. The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of establishment of a pattern of pigment in the cuticle of an organism. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of establishment of a pattern of pigment in the cuticle of an organism. The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an anatomical structure from an initial condition to its mature state. This process begins with the formation of the structure and ends with the mature structure, whatever form that may be including its natural destruction. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. Establishment of a pattern of pigment in the cuticle of an organism. Establishment of the adult pattern of pigmentation in the chitin-containing cuticle of an organism. An example of this is the adult cuticle pigmentation process in Drosophila melanogaster. The developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism, tissue or cell.
