- Fin and body neuromuscular coordination changes during walking and swimming in Polypterus senegalus
Summary: Polypterus senegalus use intermittent high-intensity activity of fin and mid-body muscles during walking compared with more constant, moderate-intensity activity of all muscles during swimming.
- Changes in hemolymph total CO2 content during the water-to-air respiratory transition of amphibiotic dragonflies
Editor's Choice: Measurements of hemolymph total CO2 (TCO2) and partial pressure of CO2 (PCO2) indicate that water-breathing dragonfly nymphs have unexpectedly high CO2 content compared with other water breathers.
- The importance of incorporating natural thermal variation when evaluating physiological performance in wild species
Summary: Physiological responses associated with stable temperatures are distinct from those in thermally variable environments and we need to understand these differences to truly predict how animals will respond to climate change.
