1. Thermal ecology and thermoregulatory behavior of Coleodactylus natalensis (Squamata: Sphaerodactylidae), in a fragment of the Atlantic forest of northeastern, Brazil
We studied the thermal ecology and thermoregulatory behavior of Coleodactylus natalensis Freire, 1999 in a remnant of a northern coastal patch of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Data were collected during four 20-day field excursions over the course of one year. We assessed the importance of substrate and air temperatures, in addition to time of exposure to s

2. Nuevos aportes a la historia natural de la mulita pampeana Dasypus hybridus (Mammalia, Dasypodidae)
This contribution presents new data about the natural history of the Dasypus hybridus (Desmarest, 1804) (Mammalia, Xenarthra, Dasypodidae). A seasonal monitoring using the capture and release method was performed over the course of three years in a 100 ha of four cattle farms in the Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Data were collected on food habits, space

4. Quantitative Genetic Analysis of Temperature Regulation in MUS MUSCULUS. I. Partitioning of Variance
Heritabilities (from parent-offspring regression) and intraclass correlations of full sibs for a variety of traits were estimated from 225 litters of a heterogeneous stock (HS/Ibg) of laboratory mice. Initial variance partitioning suggested different adaptive functions for physiological, morphological and behavioral adjustments with respect to their thermore

5. Heat generation and dissipation in plants: can the alternative oxidative phosphorylation pathway serve a thermoregulatory role in plant tissues other than specialized organs?
A number of hypothetical physiological roles have been proposed for the cyanide-insensitive alternative pathway in plants (Palmer, 1976; Laties, 1982; Meeuse, 1984; Purvis and Shewfelt, 1994; Wagner and Krab, 1995). The calorimetric observations of Raskin and co-workers (Ordentlich et al., 1991; Nevo et al., 1992; Moynihan et al., 1995) are significant contr
