Popis:	1. 1. The O 2 consumption of the turtle Geochelone carbonaria was measured at 15, 20 and 30°C environmental temperature with the animals either acclimated or not to these environments. 2. 2. An inverse compensation pattern was found. 3. 3. At 20°C acclimation temperature no significant variation of O 2 consumption in relation to environmental temperature was apparent. 4. 4. Different regression equations of O 2 consumption over body weight have been obtained for each experimental condition.
