|
| 23. | They are unique among lacertids in being capable of gliding flight between trees up to 30 m distance.
|
| 24. | The kinetic energy that develops during the dive flight is utilized in the second phase of glide flight.
|
| 25. | This gliding flight is regulated by changing the curvature of the membrane or moving the legs and tail.
|
| 26. | To achieve gliding flight, it uses two membranes ( patagia ) which fold up when not in use.
|
| 27. | Nothing like this structural mechanism for gliding flight has previously been found in any creature living or extinct.
|
| 28. | The Giant Hummingbird is distinct from other Hummingbirds in flight with occasional gliding flight observed, very rare in Trochilids.
|
| 29. | It contains the only known British example of a gliding reptile, the oldest known vertebrate capable of gliding flight.
