Before summarizing the principal components of this specialized labroid pharynx it is necessary to consider one further feature of the PJA. Liem (1973) first drew attention to a fundamental difference in the muscular linkage between LPJ and neurocranium in cichlids as compared to other taxa (see also Liem, 1986). As part of the morpho- logical basis for the adaptive radiation within the Cichlidae, Liem (1973) iden- tified a functionally strategic shift in the insertion of the fourth levator externus muscle (le4) from the fourth epibranchial bone to the LPJ. A similar shift in levator insertion has since been found in labrids (including scarids and odacids) and em- biotocids (Liem and Greenwood, 1981; Liem and Osse, 1975; Stiassny, 1980), and.
