Files in this Data Supplement:
Movie 1, Hydromantes genei capturing a cricket in dorsal view against retroreflective substrate. The feeding event was imaged at 1600 Hz and plays back at 30 Hz, or 40 times slower than actual speed. Note the extremely long tongue of Hydromantes compared to the other taxa (Movies 2 and 3) and the fact that the curved trunk causes no problems for projection of the elongated tongue skeleton, which extends to approximately mid-trunk.
Movie 2. Bolitoglossa dofleini capturing a termite in lateral view, imaged at 1000 Hz and played back at 30 Hz, or 33 times slower than actual speed. Note the precise placement of the tongue pad on the prey.
Movie 3. Eurycea wilderae feeding on a termite in lateral view, imaged at 1000 Hz and played back at 30 Hz. As in Bolitoglossa (Movie 2), the tongue is placed accurately on the prey.
