Abstract

Factors influencing levels and rates of variation of body temperature (Tb) in montane Bufo boreas boreas and in lowland Bufe boreas halophilus were investigated as an initial step toward understanding the role of natural thermal variation in the physiology and energetics of these ectothermic animals.
