Origin
Slither Wing is based on Volcarona. As such, it is also likely based on the same moths Volcarona is likely based on, such as the Atlas moth or cecropia moth. Due to its elongated abdomen, flightlessness, and wings colored differently on its tip, Slither Wing seems to be based on female specimens of the bagworm moth Cebysa leucotelus. It also bears some resemblance to a Stegosaurus. Slither Wing folds its wings above its body, suggesting that it is paleopteran, that is, belonging to the ancient group of winged insects lacking the ability to fold their wings down over their abdomens. From at least as early as the late Carboniferous period, some paleopteran insects evolved the capacity to fold their wings over their abdomens, forming the modern neopteran group. The neopterans would then go on to outcompete most traditional paleopterans by occupying their ecological niches more effectively. This drove most paleopterans to extinction, with the exception of mayflies and Odonata, the dragonflies and damselflies.
Name origin
Slither Wing is literally slither wing.
Chiwohauhane can be taken literally as 地を這う羽 chi o hau hane (wings slithering on the ground).
