By removing the gene from seven butterfly species, they were able to radically alter the insect’s appearance. Wing patterns and colours changed in ways that were unexpected.

DelFly's flapping wing motion is intended to mimic the complex patterns of flying insects. It can perform manoeuvres including 360-degree flips, loops and barrel rolls.

Insect wings pattern nanoscale structures BEIJING, Oct. 31 (UPI) -- Chinese scientists say they have used the wings of cicadas as stamps to pattern polymer film with nanometer-sized structures.
