CAMBRIDGE, England, Sept. 12 (UPI) -- Functioning "mechanical gears" have been found in nature for the first time, British scientist say, powering the jumping prowess of a common garden insect. Issus, ...

Previously believed to be only human-made, a natural example of a functioning gear mechanism has been discovered in a common insect -- showing that evolution developed interlocking cogs long before we ...

Gears and wheels are not very common in nature. Recently however, biologist have discovered a precision gearing mechanism that is built and used by an insect known as a planthopper. The bug employs ...

Many mechanical devices have been inspired by examples in nature, but it's not often that nature replicates something only known to be made by human beings. Meet Issus coeleoptratus, more commonly ...

The juvenile Issus - a plant-hopping insect found in gardens across Europe - has hind-leg joints with curved cog-like strips of opposing 'teeth' that intermesh, rotating like mechanical gears to ...
