Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 18, May 2026. SignificanceInsects were the first organisms to evolve flight and have since become the most abundant species on Earth. However, the lack of well-defined flight traits and predictive theory has made it difficult to quantify the evolution of…
