Physical Determinants of Fluid-Feeding in Insects,ctive of wetting, capillarity, and fluid mechanics. We feature butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) as representative fluid-feeding insects. Fluid uptake by live butterflies is experimentally explained based on X-ray imaging and high-speed optical microscopy and is augmented by modeling and by mechan

Hierarchical Microstructures and Functions of the Lepidopteran Proboscis Cuticle,-ray phase-contrast imaging and micro-computed tomography, have empowered researchers with capabilities to investigate the fundamental physical mechanisms of fluid uptake in detail. Insights into the physical mechanism of fluid uptake by butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera), the most diverse group of

Structure and Evolution of Mouthparts in Coleoptera,he structure and configuration of the mouthparts are mostly conservative. Archostemata, often addressed as ancestral, are characterized by a trend towards limited food uptake in the adult stage, whereas the larval mouthparts are suitable for burrowing in wood. Adephaga are predacious as adults and l

Evolution of the Multifunctional Mouthparts of Adult Vespidae, Vespidae. In the plesiomorphic state, adult wasps take up nectar and pollen with a short labiomaxillary complex; females construct subterranean nests with the mandibles, moisten hard soil with water collected using the glossa, and larvae are mass-provisioned with paralysed insect larvae which are g

Superlong Proboscises as Co-adaptations to Flowers, represent only a minority of flower-visiting insects, some play an important role as pollinators of many plant species, while others profit from consuming floral nectar without performing pollination services. Superlong proboscises evolved several times independently in euglossine bees (Hymenoptera

Morphogenesis of Piercing Stylets in Hemiptera,Because the stylets contain epithelium and bodies of neurons in their widened bases and only sensory dendrites in their narrow long shafts, the new stylet cannot grow inside the old one. Instead, next-instar stylets develop within two-layered “retortiform organs” formed by the basal epithelium invag
