Description
The "hairs" and "feathers" on a mosquito's wings help to control its flight and also contribute to its species-specific courtship sound. Most hairs on an insect are sensory, connected to nerve cells, and help it negotiate its environment. These images are from an Aedes aegypti, the species that carries Yellow Fever and Dengue Fever.
