Respiratory Strategies in Relation to Ecology and Behaviour in Three Diurnal Namib Desert Tenebrionid Beetles
SIMPLE SUMMARY: The Namib Desert has a large diversity of darkling beetle species. All these beetles are flightless and feed on plant detritus. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the respiration strategies used by these beetles are linked to their ecology and behaviour. Three beetle sp...
