Scanning electron microscope footage of the foot of a fly (Diptera). The foot bears two claws, between which is a pad called a pulvillus, containing numerous hairs. The hairs secrete a liquid that can form a strong bond between the foot and a surface, allowing the fly to walk on vertical surfaces, or even upside down. | |
