The descriptive terms labelling the upper and right borders are those of Hildebrand. It may be seen that T. vulpecula largely uses a moderate walk with diagonal couplets. Although points for T. vulpecula fall within the area designated 'trot' by Hildebrand, this gait was not observed. Further discussion is given in the text.
