Water skater can run on water surface . Why and how?  | | In the morning, I noticed some insects, ( probably water skaters ) walked and sometimes ran on the surface of pond water. Why and how they can do that? Any other insects can walk on water surface?

I think alot of them have small wings. I have seen some mosquitos do that too. It has to be that they have wings to keep them above the surface of the water when they go across it.

| | 3. Mainframeguy (161) | 7 months ago | it is because of the miniscus layer.... the one tat dips up at the sides - they are small scale enough to make use of that. By the way=- people can walk un custard also - it is a rare liquid that has the property of staying liquid when you poke it, but hard if you press it.... so next time you can make a bath or pool of custard you can amaze your friends like Jesus did!

| | 4. pzh1138 (31)  | 7 months ago | These predatory insects rely on surface tension to walk on top pf water. They can stand effortlessly on water due to their non-wetting legs.The resistance of the legs is due to the "special hierarchical structure of the legs, which are covered by large numbers of oriented tiny hairs with fine nanogrooves.
