Molecular organization of the nanoscale surface structures of the dragonfly Hemianax papuensis wing epicuticle. by Elena P Ivanova, Song Ha Nguyen, Hayden K Webb, Jafar Hasan, Vi Khanh Truong, Robert N Lamb, Xiaofei Duan, Mark J Tobin, Peter J Mahon, Russell J Crawford

“…The molecular organization of the epicuticle (the outermost layer) of insect wings is vital in the formation of the nanoscale surface patterns that are responsible for bestowing remarkable functional properties. Using a combination of spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, including Synchrotron-sourced Fourier-transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIR), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS), we have identified the chemical components that constitute the nanoscale structures on the surface of the wings of the dragonfly, Hemianax papuensis. …”

Fish Diversity Patterns in Rivers Receiving Ecological Water Supplement Driven by Riparian Land Use by LIU Han, LI Lu-dan, GUO Wei-jie, QIAO Qiang-long, GONG Dan-dan, DU Qi, LI Hang, ZHAO Wei-hua

“…Fishes were collected using standardized multi-mesh gillnets and traps, identified to species level, and quantified for abundance and biomass. Species functional traits (feeding, locomotion, predator avoidance, trophic level, reproduction) were compiled following Villéger et al., primarily sourced from FishBase and literature. …”
