Figure 10


Fig. 10. (A) Trajectories of five jumps by the same Philaenus. Take-off angles are the average over the first 10 ms after take-off. (B) Rotation of the body during a single jump by Philaenus. A fixed point on the head in the vertical or in the horizontal plane was plotted against time. The body spins about its longitudinal (y axis) and transverse (x) axis undergoing five cycles of rotation in the first 70 ms that it is airborne. Images were captured at 1000 s-1; body mass, 12 mg.
