BODY TEMPERATURES OF SELECTED AMPHIBIAN AND REPTILE SPECIES

JOURNAL OF ZOO AND WILDLIFE MEDICINE, 43(3), 517–521.

By: M. Raske n, G. Lewbart* , D. Dombrowski*, P. Hale, M. Correa & L. Christian*

author keywords: Amphibians; reptiles; ectotherm; body temperature
MeSH headings : Amphibians / classification; Amphibians / physiology; Animals; Body Temperature Regulation / physiology; Reptiles / classification; Reptiles / physiology; Species Specificity
