Intraspecific differences in metabolic rate of Chroeomys olivaceus (Rodentia: Muridae): the effect of thermal acclimation in arid and mesic habitats
(Sociedad de Biologia de Chile, 2005)
Studies of metabolic capacities in rodents have been largely studied at an inter-specific levels, but physiological capacities of populations belonging to the same species have received lesser attention. Here we studied ...
Energy metabolism and thermoregulation in Chinchilla brevicaudata
(Elsevier Ltd, 2003)
Chinchilla brevicaudata lives at 3500-5000 m, with high ambient temperatures during the day but cold at night. In this Andean habitat there is also low availability of food and water resources. Physiological attributes ...
Thermogenic capacity of three species of fruit-eating phyllostomid bats
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2011-05-01)
This study evaluated the thermogenic capacity of three species of fruit-eating phyllostomid bats (Carollia perspicillata, Sturnira lilium and Artibeus lituratus) during the dry-cool and wet-warm seasons, by measuring changes ...
