Fig. 3. Typical ant feeding event in P. vitticeps. (A) P. vitticeps capturing ant prey. Time (s) is given in the upper right of each frame. (B) Selected kinematic profiles. The gape distance profile is similar to all iguanians but very different than M. horridus. Colored dots denote onset of mouth opening (red), prey contact with the tongue (yellow) and maximum gape (blue). Onset of slow open (SO), fast open (FO) and fast close phases (FC) are denoted by dotted lines.
