132 ページ - ... their locomotion are founded on the following simple process. When a part of their body has found some projection of the ground which affords it a point of support, the ribs alternately of one and the other side are drawn more closely together, thereby producing alternate bends of the body on the corresponding side. The hinder portion of the body being drawn after, some part of it finds another support on the rough ground, or some projection; and the anterior bends being stretched in a straight...
