Structural Analysis of a Dragonfly Wing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dragonfly wings are highly corrugated, which increases the stiffness and strength of the wing significantly, and results in a lightweight structure with good aerodynamic performance.

Investigating Social Immunity in Swarming Locusts via a Triple Animal–Robot–Pathogen Hybrid Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study explores social immunity in gregarious locusts using a groundbreaking animal–robot–pathogen interaction model. By comparing locust responses to biomimetic agents mimicking healthy and infected individuals, significant behavioral changes are revealed.

Interactions between heat-induced chiasma frequency changes in Schistocerca gregaria [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 1989
Using inbred laboratory stocks of the locust Schistocerca gregaria, two experiments were carried out using composite heat-treatment programmes of 40 degrees C and 30 degrees C combinations. These were designed to superimpose different heat-induced increases and decreases in chiasma frequency, to determine what interactions would occur and which effects

Control of Head Movement in the Locust, Schistocerca Gregaria [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 1974
ABSTRACT Head movement in the locust Schistocerca gregaria is mediated by 14 pairs of muscles. The normal motor output to many of these muscles has been investigated in the intact insect by recording with two intracellular microelectrodes from different fibres of a muscle during slow and fast phases of optokinetic nystagmus elicited by ...
