A priori we expected that the stiffness of finlets 3, 4, 5A. and 5B would he similar because they are structurally identical, hut that the stiffness of finlet 5 as a whole would be less than that of the individual finlets because the double- finlet structure is supported only by a clear membrane. In some cases this expectation was corroborated by the lack of bending seen in finlets 3 and 5B. and the slight bending (a = 174 ± 6°, mean ± SD. n = 13) of finlet 4. However, in two of the three fish examined, finlet 5A displayed significant bending during the tail stroke, with a values as low as 145° (compared with 180° for a flat plate). This variability in the stiffness of finlet 5 among individuals was unexpected. As anticipated, there was considerable flexion. 15 12 14 16 18 20 X axis (mm) 22 24 26 2S.
