Extensive Acclimation in Ectotherms Conceals Interspecific Variation in Thermal Tolerance Limits.

Species' tolerance limits determine their capacity to tolerate climatic extremes and limit their potential distributions. Interspecific variation in thermal tolerances is often proposed to indicate climatic vulnerability and is, therefore, the subject of many recent meta-studies on differential...
