Diagonal‐couplet gaits on discontinuous supports in Japanese macaques and implications for the adaptive significance of the diagonal‐sequence, diagonal‐couplet gait of primates

Abstract: Objectives: Diagonal-sequence, diagonal-couplet (DSDC) gaits have been proposedas an adaptation to travel on discontinuously arranged arboreal branches. Only a few studies have examined primate gait adjustment to support discontinuity. We analyzed the gaits of Japanese macaques walking on the "ground" and two discontinuous conditions, "circle" and "point," to better understand the advantages of DSDC gaits on discontinuous supports.Materials and Methods: Seventy-eight vertical posts, each with a circular upper … Show more
