Since the strike is produced by a latch-mediated spring-actuated system and not directly driven by muscle action, we predicted that strikes performed in air would be faster than underwater due to reduction in the medium's drag. Using high-speed video analysis of stereotyped strikes elicited from Squilla mantis, we found the exact opposite: strikes are much slower and less powerful in air than in water. S. mantis strikes in air have a similar mass and performance to latch-mediated spring-actuated jumps in locusts, suggesting a potential threshold for the energetics of a 1-2 g limb rotating in air. Drag forces induced by the media may be a key feature in the evolution of mantis shrimp strikes and provide a potential target for probing the braking system of these extremely fast movements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1242\/jeb.208678","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,27]],"date-time":"2020-01-27T16:25:14Z","timestamp":1580142314000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Medium compensation in a spring-actuated system"],"prefix":"10.1242","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4730-2105","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kathryn D.","family":"Feller","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Minnesota, Ecology Evolution and Behavior Department, 1479 Gortner Avenue, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55108, USA"},{"name":"University of Cambridge, Physiology Development and Neuroscience Department, Downing Street, Cambridge, CB2 3EG, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3099-9842","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gregory P.","family":"Sutton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Lincoln, School of Life Sciences, Brayford Pool, Lincoln, LN6 7TS, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paloma T.","family":"Gonzalez-Bellido","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Minnesota, Ecology Evolution and Behavior Department, 1479 Gortner Avenue, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55108, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"237","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021042623225131700_JEB208678C1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2153","DOI":"10.1242\/jeb.205.15.2153","article-title":"Muscle designed for maximum short-term power output: quail flight muscle","volume":"205","author":"Askew","year":"2002","journal-title":"J.
