PHENOTYPIC VARIATION OF LARKS ALONG AN ARIDITY GRADIENT: ARE DESERT BIRDS MORE FLEXIBLE?

We investigated interindividual variation and intra-individual phenotypic flexibility in basal metabolic rate (BMR), total evaporative water loss (TEWL), body temperature (Tb), the minimum dry heat transfer coefficient (h), and organ and muscle size of five species of larks geographically distribute...
