1.每年有数十亿昆虫进行长距离季节性大规模迁徙，对农业、生态系统服务和虫媒疾病产生重大后果。在野外追踪这种运动是困难的，因为大规模迁徙通常发生在高海拔和大空间范围内。2.因此，系留飞行是研究昆虫飞行行为的宝贵工具，可在受控的实验室环境下深入了解飞行倾向(例如距离、持续时间和速度)和方向。通过实验操作各种环境和生理特征，许多研究已经使用这项技术来研究从蚜虫到蝴蝶等大小不等的迁徙昆虫的飞行行为。功能基因组学的进展有望将其扩展到识别与飞行相关的遗传因素。拴系飞行技术被用于研究昆虫的迁徙飞行特性已有50多年的历史，但从未被综述过。3.这项研究总结了这项技术的主要发现，该技术已被用于六个目的物种研究。通过提供系留飞行系统的详细说明，本研究还旨在进一步了解系留飞行研究如何支持实地观测、在哪些情况下该技术有用以及如何在今后的研究中使用该技术。4.目的是在昆虫迁徙的更广泛知识范围内将现有的系留飞行研究联系起来，并描述这些系统对文献的重大贡献。
1. Every year billions of insects engage in long‐distance, seasonal mass migrations which have major consequences for agriculture, ecosystem services and insect‐vectored diseases. Tracking this movement in the field is difficult, with mass migrations often occurring at high altitudes and over large spatial scales. 2. As such, tethered flight provides a valuable tool for studying the flight behaviour of insects, giving insights into flight propensity (e.g. distance, duration and velocity) and orientation under controlled laboratory settings. By experimentally manipulating a variety of environmental and physiological traits, numerous studies have used this technology to study the flight behaviour of migratory insects ranging in size from aphids to butterflies. Advances in functional genomics promise to extend this to the identification of genetic factors associated with flight. Tethered flight techniques have been used to study migratory flight characteristics in insects for more than 50 years, but have never been reviewed. 3. This study summarises the key findings of this technology, which has been employed in studies of species from six Orders. By providing detailed descriptions of the tethered flight systems, the present study also aims to further the understanding of how tethered flight studies support field observations, the situations under which the technology is useful and how it might be used in future studies. 4. The aim is to contextualise the available tethered flight studies within the broader knowledge of insect migration and to describe the significant contribution these systems have made to the literature.
