Analysis of modularity and integration suggests evolution of dragonfly wing venation mainly in response to functional demands
Insect wings show a high variability in wing venation. Selection for function, developmental pathways and phylogeny likely influenced wing vein diversification, however, quantitative data to estimate these influences and their interplay are missing. Here, it is tested how dragonfly wing vein configu...
