Abstract
As a result of similar environmental pressures (cf. Burda et al., this volume), subterranean rodents share a variety of convergent physiological specializations such as low basal metabolic rate, low body temperature and high thermal conductance (reviewed, e.g. by Contreras and McNab 1990; Nevo 1999; Buffenstein 2000).
