Elastic joints in dermapteran hind wings: materials and wing folding

Arthropod Structure and Development, 2000
Representatives of Dermaptera probably have the most unusual hind wing venation and folding pattern among insects. Both correlate with unusual wing folding mechanics, in which folding is achieved from within the wing and unfolding is done by the cerci.

Wing folding and the functional morphology of the wing base in Coleoptera

Zoology, 2001
The wing unfolding of Pachnoda marginata was examined using digital video (50 half-fps) and high speed video sequences (1000 fps), and the skeleto-muscular apparatus of the metathorax was described. Left and right hind wing are able to promote independently of each other.

Design of a hydraulically-driven bionic folding wing

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2018
Membranous hind wings of the beetles can be folded under the elytra when they are at rest, and rotate and lift the elytra up only when they need to fly. This characteristic provides excellent flying capability and good environment adaptability. Inspired by the beetles, the new type of the bionic folding wing for the flapping wing Micro Air Vehicle (MAV)

Wing Folding in Lepidoptera

The Canadian Entomologist, 1964
The wing folding mechanism was investigated after a detailed study of the wing base morphology had been made (Sharplin, Canad. Ent. 95: 1024; 1121). Living moths were observed with a binocular microscope equipped with a micrometer eyepiece.The first and second axillary sclerites do not move anteroposteriorly; only the distal half of the wing base is ...
