Drosophila wing modularity revisited through a quantitative genetic approach
(Society for the Study of Evolution, 2016-07)
To predict the response of complex morphological structures to selection it is necessary to know how the covariation among its different parts is organized. Two key features of covariation are modularity and integration. ...
Mechanism of the wing colouration in the dragonfly Zenithoptera lanei (Odonata: Libellulidae) and its role in intraspecific communication
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-10-01)
Zenithoptera dragonflies are known for their remarkable bluish colouration on their wings and unique male behaviour of folding and unfolding their wings while perching. However, nothing is known about the optical properties ...
Altitudinal population structure and microevolution of the malaria vector Anopheles cruzii (Diptera: Culicidae)
(BioMed Central, 2014-12-16)
Abstract
Background
In Brazil, the autochthonous transmission of extra-Amazonian malaria occurs mainly in areas of the southeastern coastal Atlantic Forest, where Anopheles ...
Fenômeno de wing rock em placas de compósitos com acoplamento flexão-torção
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBrasilUFRNPROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM ENGENHARIA MECÂNICA, 2021-07-20)
Wing rock is an undesirable oscillatory phenomenon that can occur in
airfoils with an increase in the angle of attack due to effects such as asymmetric
vortex breakdown. This work aims to study the frequency and amplitude ...

Butterfly flight morphology differs between canopy and understorey in a tropical rainforest community
(PUCE, 2017)
1. Studies of altitudinal and latitudinal gradients in temperate areas often associate landscape structure and climate with animal morphology. In tropical rainforests there is a shift in conditions between the canopy and ...
Reinforcements in avian wing bones: Experiments, analysis, and modeling
(Elsevier, 2017-07)
Almost all species of modern birds are capable of flight; the mechanical competency of their wings and the rigidity of their skeletal system evolved to enable this outstanding feat. One of the most interesting examples of ...
