Geometric morphometrics analysis of the hind wing of leaf beetles: proximal and distal parts are separate modules
Abstract. The success of beetles is mainly attributed to the possibility to hide the hindwings under the sclerotised elytra. The acquisition of the transverse folding function of the hind wing is an important event in the evolutionary history of beetles. In this study, the morphological and function...
