Hummingbird hovering energetics during moult of primary flight feathers.

How does a hovering hummingbird compensate for the loss of flight feathers during moult when the mechanism of lift force generation by flapping wings is impaired? The flight performance of five individual ruby-throated hummingbirds with moulting primary flight feathers and reduced wing area was compared with that before their moult. Hummingbirds were flown in reduced air densities using normoxi...

Ecomorphology of Feeding in Coral Reef Fishes

Once an observer gets past the stunning coloration, surely no feature inspires wonder in coral reef fishes so much as their morphological diversity. From large-mouthed groupers, to beaked parrot fish, barbeled goatfish, long-snouted trumpet fish, snaggletoothed tusk fish, tube-mouthed planktivores, and fatlipped sweet lips, coral reef fishes display a dazzling array of feeding structures. And, ...

Dental Ecomorphology of Extant European Carnivorans

Tooth shape was investigated in 20 species of extant European carnivorans with diverse diets. The rake angle of the upper and lower carnassial crests were measured. The rake angle is the angle of the leading surface of the crest with the direction of movement and is an indicator of the mechanical efficiency of a crest. The omnivores and meat/bone feeder were found to have very low and often neg...

Thickness of Feathers

Briefly, a feather is a semigroup derivation diagram with the labels on the edges removed. In this paper, we are concerned with possible definitions for the thickness of a feather. A major open problem is whether the word problem is solvable for semigroup presentations with one defining relation. It is known that word problems for semigroup presentations are solvable if the number of regions in...
