Circuit analogy unveiled the haemodynamic effects of the posterior cross vein in the wing vein networks.

We investigated the wing vein network topology in fruit flies and observed that the posterior cross vein (PCV) disrupts the symmetry of the entire network. The fluidic engineering function of this vein's disposition remains unexplored although the wing vein network is known to transport blood....
