The ability to initiate freezing at elevated subzero temperatures is deemed an important adaptation in freeze-tolerant insects, as this phenotype allows them to avoid potentially lethal flash freezing and to conserve both body water and stored energy

Insects evolve levels of cold hardiness that are sufficient to meet the severity of thermal conditions in their hibernacula. This study examined freeze tolerance and related features in caterpillars of Hypercompe scribonia, which is the overwintering

The effects of freeze exposure at −4.5°C for as long as 6 weeks on long-term postfreeze survival and body fluid composition were investigated in caterpillars (woolly bears) of the arctiid moth Pyrrharctia isabella. Woolly bears routinely survived

1. The giant leopard moth ( Ecpantheria scribonia ) caterpillars were collected during October in Pennsylvania (USA) in order to measure indicators of cold hardiness. 2. The supercooling point rose 2–4 °C with cold acclimation (3 °C) but this cha

Freeze tolerance exists among a few species of terrestrially hibernating North American frogs such as the wood frog (Rana sylvatica) and the spring peeper (Pseudacris crucifer). We investigated jump distance and swimming speed of these two frog speci

Tissue ice content and post-freeze survival were documented for caterpillars of the arctiid moth Pyrrharctia isabella. Tissue ice content was inversely dependent on freeze temperature (-3 degrees C=24.4%, -6 degrees C=40.2%, -10 degrees C=48.7%) but

(1) 1 H and 31 P NMR spectroscopy were used to measure high energy organophosphates (ATP and creative phosphate, CP) and to estimate intracellular pH in juvenile Rana sylvatica during freezes at –1.5°C lasting up to 7 d. (2) Frogs largely maintain

Freeze tolerance and enhanced supercooling ability (freeze avoidance) are distinct adaptations in insects facilitating survival of subfreezing temperatures. It has been suggested that freeze tolerance has advantages over freeze avoidance with respect

Freeze-tolerant frogs experience marked changes in their cellular chemistry as a result of internal freezing, forcing them to incur metabolic costs that are likely remedied upon thawing. This study measured levels of O2 consumption in Rana sylvatica
