Prediction of the strength of intersegmental connections in sister species in genus Drosophila. The black curve shows the relation between the intersegmental coupling wEn and crawling speed obtained by the neuromechanical model based on the measurement of Drosophila melanogaster larvae. This plot was obtained by averaging out the weight of proprioceptive sensory feedback wES in Fig. 9B. The average and standard error mean of speed in species in the genus Drosophila are shown by solid lines and shaded areas, respectively. The speed data was calculated from the data in [57]. The 11 Drosophila (D., hereafter) species consisted of D. ananassae (ana), D. erecta (ere), D. mauritiana (mau), D. melanogaster (mel), D. mojavensis (moj), D. persimilis (per), D. pseudoobscula (pse), D. sechellia (sec), D. virilis (vir), D. willistoni (wil), and D. yakuba (yak)
