The 17 pages that link to Brachiation, each with the reason it gives.

• BipedalismCompared with: This primate mode uses the arms rather than two-legged walking to travel through trees.

• Arboreal locomotionBroader topic: Gibbons use this specialized form to travel rapidly between branches.

• CursorialityCompared with: Suspensory movement trades sustained ground speed for travel through the canopy.

• QuadrupedalismCompared with: Brachiation propels the body through arm-swinging rather than four-limbed contact.

• ArborealityBroader topic: This specialized canopy movement is one possible component, not a synonym, of arboreality.

• OrangutanRelated: Orangutans move through trees using varied climbing and swinging techniques.

• Cursorial locomotionCompared with: Brachiation uses suspended arm movements instead of ground-running limb cycles.

• GibbonRelated: Gibbons use this form of locomotion to travel swiftly through the canopy.

• HominoideaRelated: Gibbons use this form of travel extensively, enabled by long arms and mobile shoulders.

• HylobatidaeRelated: Gibbons use this form of locomotion to travel rapidly through forest canopies.

• Saltatorial locomotionCompared with: Brachiation advances through suspended arm swings rather than forceful takeoffs from the ground.

• ForelimbRelated: Some primate forelimbs are adapted to support body weight during suspension and swinging.

• Spider monkeyRelated: Their long arms support suspensory travel through the canopy, alongside more varied climbing and leaping.

• SiamangRelated: The siamang's long arms and mobile shoulders are adapted for this form of travel.

• DryopithecusRelated: Comparisons with arm-swinging apes help assess, but do not settle, Dryopithecus locomotion.

• Lar gibbonRelated: The lar gibbon's long arms enable rapid travel through the canopy by swinging.

• SifakaCompared with: Sifakas leap between supports rather than primarily swinging beneath them.
