We used acid digestion and glycogen depletion to determine fascicle organization, fiber morphology, and physiological and anatomical features of individual motor units of an in-series muscle, the pectoralis (pars thoracicus) of the pigeon (Columba li

The neuromotor pattern (i.e. the onset/offset of muscle contraction within the locomotor cycle) is conserved for some homologous muscles of the tetrapod shoulder but not others in the transition from terrestrial locomotion to flight. Here we test for

The M. pectoralis (pars thoracicus) of pigeons (Columba livia) is comprised of short muscle fibres that do not extend from muscle origin to insertion but overlap ‘in-series’. Individual pectoralis motor units are limited in territory to a portion

Force recordings of the pectoralis muscle of European starlings have been made in vivo during level flight in a wind tunnel, based on bone strain recordings at the muscle’s attachment site on the humerus (deltopectoral crest). This represents the f

Flapping as a means of locomotion is shared by divergent groups ranging from pteropod molluscs to birds. The pteropod, Clione limacina , exhibits two modes of locomotion, slow and fast swimming. The motor units which control swimming consist of small

The excursions of wing elements and the activity of eleven shoulder muscles were studied by cineradiography and electromyography in European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) flying in a wind tunnel at speeds of 9–20 m s−1. At the beginning of downstr

We explored the mechanical properties of four shoulder muscles of the Savannah Monitor Lizard (Varanus exanthematicus) and related these to locomotion. We studied the biceps brachii, supracoracoideus, two parts of the latissimus dorsi, and two parts

Forward locomotion in the pteropod mollusc Clione limacina occurs in two distinct speeds, slow and fast. Fast swimming can include an initial ballistic escape phase following proper stimulation. Escape swimming is always followed by a period of fast

Wing upstroke in birds capable of powered flight is kinematically the most complicated phase of the wingbeat cycle. The M. supracoracoideus (SC), generally considered to be the primary elevator of the wing, is a muscle with a highly derived but stere
