Abstract: | Feeding by C. atropos decreases sharply at and below 6.degree. C compared to that at 8.degree. C and 10.degree. C. As temperature decreases, each individual requires less energy in terms of calories. No growth occurred below 8.degree. C, suggesting a developmental zero between 6-8.degree. C. |
