Abstract
The physiological reality and profound ecological significance of the phenomenon of regulation of rate functions towards a constant, in response to maintained temperature differences, within the species in poikilotherms, has been widely recognized in recent times. Much attention has been directed in this connexion to a study of populations spatially separated by a wide range of latitude or temporally separated by the annual cycle of seasons. Indications of the existence of similar intraspecific differences between high and low members of populations of intertidal invertebrates are reported in the present communication.
