A methodological exploration to study 2D arm kinematics in Ophiuroidea (Echinodermata)
Abstract Brittle stars, unlike most other echinoderms, do not use their small tube feet for locomotion but instead use their flexible arms to produce a rowing or reverse rowing movement. They are among the fastest-moving echinoderms with the ability of complex locomotory behaviors. Considering the h...
