thermoregulation in three species of afrotropical subterranean mole-rats (rodentia: bathyergidae) from zambia and angola and scaling within the genus cryptomys. | the thermoregulatory characteristics of three species of cryptomys from zambia and angola are examined and, together with published data on four other species of cryptomys from southern africa, used to determine whether scaling occurs in this genus of subterranean rodents. the thermoregulatory properties of acclimated giant zambian mole-rats, cryptomys mechowi ([formula: see text]=267 g), angolan mole-rats, cryptomys bocagei ([formula: see text]=94 g) and zambian common mole-rats cryptomys hotte ... | 1994 | 28313932 |
