Fig. 6. Wingbeat frequency (fw) data for Mormopterus planiceps. Equation 3 describing the general relationship between fw, mass (m) and flight speed (V) is superimposed over the data, showing the accurate prediction of the higher frequency range used by the bat. For this species, a lower fw range, approximately 3 Hz below the Equation 3 estimate, is also used by the bat. This is the only species observed to use two different frequency ranges.
