Figure 7 in Endothermy in African Platypleurine Cicadas: The Influence of Body Size and Habitat (Hemiptera: Cicadidae)

Figure 7. Allometric relationship between cooling rate and body size in cicadas. Values represent the mean value reported for each species (n = 1–8). Filled circles represent endothermic platypleurines, the open circle represents the ectothermic Albanycada albigera, filled squares represent New World endotherms, and open squares represent New World ectotherms. Additional data are from Heath and Wilkin (1970), Heath et al. (1972), Bartholomew and Barnhart (1984), Sanborn et al. (1992, 1995a, 1995b, 2002, 2003a), Sanborn (2000), and Villet et al. (2003).
