Water striders have intrigued researchers for centuries from the viewpoints of biology to biomechanics.In this review,we introduce the basic theories and techniques of physics and force measurement for biomechanical research into water striders.Morphological and behavioral traits of water striders are summarized and discussed from biomechanical perspectives,along with comparative study.This integrated review also highlights potential directions for studies on water-walking arthropods,which might inspire future biological and biomechanical research.
