• Underwater breathing: the mechanics of plastron respiration (2008, background): “Many aquatic and semi-aquatic arthropods (insects and spiders) are rendered waterrepellent by virtue of a rough, waxy exterior festooned with hairs (Andersen 1977; Perez-Goodwyn 2007; Bush, Hu & Prakash 2007 ).”
• The hydrodynamics of water-walking arthropods (2010, background): “Instead, a water-repellent state was maintained: a thin air layer remained trapped in its integument (Bush et al. 2008).”
