Muscle Complexes in the Jaw Apparatus of Teleost Fishes: Structure and Function

E. S. Gromova,
V. V. Makhotin

Abstract: Striated muscles of the teleost fishes sometimes combine into complicated “supramuscular” complexes. In these complexes, individual muscles are connected into parallel combinations and/or in sequential series. A group of parallel muscles combines their forces to carry out a single powerful functional act. Consistently connected muscles obtain thereby an increased amplitude and speed of movements. For the described “supramuscular” complexes, the term “supermuscle” has been proposed. The paper provides an overvi… Show more
