Form and Function of Insect Wings
Author: Dmitry L. GrodnitskyPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Animal flight
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
In Form and Function of Insect Wings Grodnitsky offers a comprehensive overview of the functional morphology of insect wings from the viewpoint of general biology and uses these data to help further explain animal morphology. Grodnitsky evaluates functional issues relating to insect diversification, particularly wing structure and kinematics. He discusses recent data on wing kinematics and structure from the point of view of modern insect flight aerodynamics and general evolutionary morphology. He is most concerned with the question of which features of an organism can be explained by natural selection of given functional variants and which cannot.
The Wing Veins of Insects, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 508
Book Description
Excerpt from The Wing Veins of Insects, Vol. 1 Additional evidence in favor of the theory of the indirect development of the wings may be had from a study of the structure of existing and fossil wings. 'the great difference that is evident between the structure of the wing membrane and that of'the body wall is nowhere bridged over by tran sitional conditions, even in degenerate and functionless wings. It is only in cases where the wing loses in a measure its flight function by taking upon itself other duties, as in the case of elytra, halters, etc., that the histological structure becomes approximately that of the body wall. The invariable association of strikingly distinct structural peculiarities with the function of flight and the absence of transitional conditions indicates that the primitive wing must have arisen from an organ distinct in function and structure from any of the types of functional wings known in living insects or preserved to us in the rocks. Some of the differentiations that characterize wings arose while the wing exercised this other function. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
