|description  = Diagrammatic representation of the principal components of the specifically modified [[pharyngeal jaw apparatus]] of [[cichlids]]. Red elements are the upper and lower pharyngeal jaws. The muscles organizing the pharyngeal jaw apparatus are represented as black thick lines, and the principal directions of force have been indicated by arrows. The drawing is based on Liem & Greenwood [32]. Numbers indicate three major features of the specialized "[[labroid]]" pharyngeal jaw apparatus: 1) the left and right lower jaw elements are fused into a single structure (the [[lower pharyngeal jaw]]), 2) the lower jaw is suspended in a muscular sling that runs from the [[neurocranium]] to the posterior muscular arms of the lower jaw, and 3) the upper jaw elements have a [[diarthrotic articulation]] with the underside of the neurocranium.
