Abstract
Summary.: Oxygen consumption at graded temperatures was measured for crayfish, frog, newt and earthworm. In contrast to recent claims, these animals showed the normal metabolic response to rising temperature, with a Q10 value of 2—3.So far the evidence for diurnal or other short term temperature compensation is at best poorly reproducible and the phenomenon can hardly be accepted as well established.Keywords
