Damselfly larvae may autotomize and regenerate any of their 3 caudal lamellae. At least one missing or regenerating lamella was evident in 50.1% of field collected Ischnura posita larvae. Lamellae loss during molting is very infrequent (1 out of 117 recorded molts). Laboratory trials indicate that c
## Abstract New World monkeys vary considerably in the manner and degree to which they use their tails. There ought to arise a corresponding variation in the stresses on caudal vertebrae. Consequently, different behavior types will have contrasting caudal morphologies. This study investigates cauda
