Emersion and Terrestrial Locomotion of the Northern Snakehead (Channa argus) on Multiple Substrates. [PDF]
Integr Org Biol, 2019 SynopsisMost fishes known for terrestrial locomotion are small and/or elongate. Northern snakeheads (Channa argus) are large, air-breathing piscivores anecdotally known for terrestrial behaviors. Our goals were to determine their environmental motivations for emersion, describe their terrestrial kinematics for fish 3.0–70.0 cm and compare kinematics ...
