1858 Harper's Mag. Dec. 33/2 The wings distinctly differ in their nervures, the latter resembling gray crinkled silk.

1877 T. H. Huxley Man. Anat. Invertebrated Animals vii. 399 The wing is strengthened by radiating thickenings, or nervures, united by delicate transverse ridges.

a1933 J. A. Thomson Biol. for Everyman (1934) I. xiii. 247 As they grow out they become flattened, and they show supporting thickenings of chitin, badly called ‘veins’ or ‘nervures’, which always follow some specific pattern.

1975 Nature 17 July 203/1 In a real insect wing, these tubes (veins or nervures) often carry haemolymph or serve as conduits for nerves and tracheae.
