• ][21][22][23][24][25][26]. While there have been numerous attempts to develop models to take traps in unipolar devices into account [27][28][29][30][31], nearly all of them still rely on drift as the only transport mechanism. However, traps will often lead to a situation where diffusion currents cannot

As most of these lizards are unable to lick water from most parts of their body, such a water transport mechanism is essential for them. The stereotypic moisture harvesting behaviour of the Texas horned lizard Phrynosoma cornutum (Iguanidae

• obtains the theoretical curve depicted as solid black line in Figure 9A. This curve resembles the measured values very well, thus normal capillary transport takes place in Phrynocephalus arabicus. The transport mechanism is homogeneous and the animal's mouth serves as a water sink. Thus when the capillary
