Interspecies variation of larval locomotion kinematics in the genus Drosophila and its relation to habitat temperature

Abstract Background Speed and trajectory of locomotion are the characteristic traits of individual species. Locomotion kinematics may have been shaped during evolution towards increased survival in the habitats of each species. Although kinematics of locomotion is thought to be influenced by habitat...
