متن کاملWrinkles enhance the diffuse reflection from the dragonfly Rhyothemis resplendens.
The dorsal surfaces of the hindwings of the dragonfly Rhyothemis resplendens (Odonata: Libellulidae) reflect a deep blue from the multilayer structure in its wing membrane. The layers within this structure are not flat, but distinctly 'wrinkled', with a thickness of several hundred nanometres and interwrinkle crest distances of 5 µm and greater.

متن کاملImmunocompetence and resource holding potential in the damselfly, Calopteryx virgo L
It is generally believed that resource holding potential reliably reflects male quality, but empirical evidence showing this is scarce. Here we show that the outcome of male-male competition may predict male immunocompetence in the territorial damselfly, Calopteryx virgo (Odonata: Calopterygidae). We staged contests between 27 pairs of males and found that winners of the contests showed higher ...

Directional asymmetry (DA) has received considerably less attention than fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in the literature. Evid ence for D A, howev er, is building am ong insect tax a. We ex amined as ymmetries in two wing traits within both sex es of the dam selfly Calopte ryx mac ulata (Beauvois) (Odonata: Calopterygidae), sampled from three sites in southeastern Ontario.
