Hypothetical evolutionary development of locomotor complexity in vertebrates, the accompanying increase in morphological complexity and the role played by vestibular sensory signaling, and the resultant gradual decline in locomotor EC influence in the production of compensatory eye movements. Despite the increasing capability of inner ear endorgans for motion detection and sensory-motor transformations, locomotor EC signals appear to have maintained an important role in gaze stabilization, even during bipedal locomotion.
