GETTING AROUND AS A HERP
What are the 2 primary roles of the axial skeleton?
1. Support Body2. Propel the Body
THESE ROLES ARE BALANCED AGAINST ONEANOTHER

How Lizards and Slanders Move?
1. Transfer weight to 3 limbs while other changes position2. Flexion of pine3. No Falling4. Problems for breathing
a. Muscles allowing flexion used for breathingb. Transfer air between lungs
5. When running have 2 legs off ground
HOW DO TURTLES DIFFER?

LOCOMOTION BY TURTLES ISESSENTUALLY A CONTROLLED SERIES OF FALLS

WHAT ABOUT ANURANS?
Fig 1-2
On Land: We think mostly of hopping/jumping, but use other gaitsIn Water: Swimming is mostly a hind-limb approach

Snakes and Other Legless Lizards use 6 Modes On Land
Rectilinear Locomotion: Use of Ribs and Belly Scales to slowly crawl forward. Common among large constrictors. Can often be seen when rat snakes transverse boards. (Similar to a Roman Galley).
Saltation: Reports of young vipers exploding forward 1.5 times their body length during strikes.

Do Any Modern Herps Fly?
![Page 13: GETTING AROUND AS A HERP What are the 2 primary roles of the axial skeleton?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022072013/56649e4d5503460f94b42cc4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Do Any Modern Herps Fly?
Powered Flight: Birds, PterosaursCapable of Climbing
Falling: Drop Strait Down
Parachuting: Steep Descent of more than 45°
Gliding: Shallow Descent of less than 45°

Fossorial Locomotion--Digging
Limbless animals use head and concertina motion
Limbed animals use forelimbs for “swimming”or scratch-digging.

COMMUNICATION AMONG AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES
VISUAL
TACTILE
CHEMICAL
AUDIO
What are the major benefits and problems for each of these?

VISUAL COMMUNICATION
Benefits: Cheap to Produce
Costs: Short RangeRequires Making Yourself Obvious
Examples: Extensive use in lizards (Work by Diana Hews)Open mouth displays of TuataraCourtship displays of newts (Includes Chemical)Frogs change colors and flash patches at each otherParts of crocodile displays

TACTILE COMMUNICATION
Benefits: Cheap to ProduceRelatively Safe (If You Pay Attention)
Costs: Very Short RangeCan be Very DiscreteOften Final Portion of Courting
Examples: Courtship of SnakesCourtship displays of salamanders (Includes Chemical)Tail Straddling by Salamanders
![Page 19: GETTING AROUND AS A HERP What are the 2 primary roles of the axial skeleton?](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022072013/56649e4d5503460f94b42cc4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CHEMICAL COMMUNICATION
Benefits: Moderate Cost to Produce
Costs: Short or Long RangeMay Make You Obvious to Chemically ReceptivePredators
Examples: Extensive Use in SalamandersExtensive Use by SnakesUse in Lizards Poorly StudiedSome Use by FrogsLittle Known in AlligatorsProbably Common Among Turtles

AUDIO COMMUNICATION
Benefits: Very Long Range
Costs: Expensive to ProduceRequires Making Yourself Obvious To Predators
Examples: Frog Calls Alligator BellowingHissing by Squamates
