Morphological Variations of Leading-Edge Serrations in Owls (Strigiformes).
Owls have developed serrations, comb-like structures, along the leading edge of their wings. Serrations were investigated from a morphological and a mechanical point of view, but were not yet quantitatively compared for different species. Such a comparative investigation of serrations from species o...
