These are broad concavities in the ambitus that could be considered precursors to the ambulacral notches of certain mellitids. |
|
For each individual, 2 diameters were recorded across the ambitus and averaged. |
|
Test diameter was measured at 2 perpendicular points across the ambitus using calipers, and individuals were weighed to the nearest milligram. |
|
Notches are ambulacral lunules that form close enough to the ambitus that the ambitus is unable to close over the distal part of the notch to form a closed lunule. |
|
A tone cluster of very small ambitus gradually fans out, while its intensity grows. |
|
The ambitus designates the totality of notes which a singer can reach, from the highest to the lowest. |
|
A bit of expressive melody appears, imitating the modulations of a voice which stretches in a rather large ambitus. |
|
But what a spoken voice, even grandiloquent, would express within a fairly narrow ambitus is here enormously enlarged and makes use of the whole register of the instrument. |
|
At ordinal levels, in cassiduloids and holectypoids, ambitus is circular, elliptical or oval, while clypeasteroids have a pentagonal to circular type. |
