抽象。现代计算机辅助技术促进了灭绝和现存物种的3D可视化和重建的可用性和质量。此外，运动和其他运动的动画序列进入了电影和纪录片，但也在科学中获得了吸引力。虽然运动分析在脊椎动物，特别是哺乳动物和鸟类中已经很先进，但在节肢动物中的分析，由于其在一般解剖学和大小方面的变化要大得多，仍然处于婴儿期，并仅限于少数实验室物种。这些限制和对陆生节肢动物运动的理解不足通常阻碍了对那些不能直接观察到的物种的运动的合理重建（例如，已灭绝和神秘的物种）。由于缺点，如过于简化的方法来模拟节肢动物运动变得明显最近，在这篇综述中，我们提供了深入了解物理，形态，生理，行为和生态的限制，这是至关重要的合理重建陆生节肢动物运动。这种协调一致的考虑沿着对稳定性和效率要求的合理评估可以为腿部协调和身体动力学的现实评估铺平道路。
Abstract. Modern computer-aided techniques foster the availability and quality of 3D visualization and reconstruction of extinct and extant species. Moreover, animated sequences of locomotion and other movements find their way into motion pictures and documentary films, but also gain attraction in science. While movement analysis is well advanced in vertebrates, particularly in mammals and birds, analyses in arthropods, with their much higher variability regarding general anatomy and size, are still in their infancies and restricted to a few laboratory species. These restrictions and deficient understanding of terrestrial arthropod locomotion in general impedes sensible reconstruction of movements in those species that are not directly observable (e.g., extinct and cryptic species). Since shortcomings like over-simplified approaches to simulate arthropod locomotion became obvious recently, in this review we provide insight into physical, morphological, physiological, behavioral, and ecological constraints, which are essential for sensible reconstructions of terrestrial arthropod locomotion. Such concerted consideration along with sensible evaluations of stability and efficiency requirements can pave the way to realistic assessment of leg coordination and body dynamics.
