[Structural-functional peculiarities of wing appatatus of insects that have and do not have maneuver flight].
The work considers character of behavior in flight and discusses peculiarities of the structural-functional organization of the wing apparatus of two representative of insects: the Asiatic locust Locusta migratoria (a low-maneuver insect) and the dragonfly Aeschna sp. (an insect able to perform complex maneuvers in the air). The main principles underlying work of the wing apparatus of these insects are considered and mechanisms allowing the dragonflies to perform complex maneuvers in the flight are analyzed in detail.
