General Information
Term wing vein ID (Ontology) FBbt:00004751 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Wing veins are epidermal sclerotizations above hemolymph lacunae that run between the dorsal and the ventral wing surfaces and carry trachea and nerves. The two-dimensional pattern of wing veins is the result of the cuticular differentiation of stripes of epidermal cells on the wing blade, which can be contrasted with the two-dimensional pattern of sensory organs derived from discrete cells.[ FlyBase:FBrf0055233 FlyBase:FBrf0166419 ]
