The Effects of Temperature on Flight Muscle Potentials in Honeybees …
They decrease to 0·45 at 11 °C in bees and to 0·56 at 1°C in moths. Results suggest that bees can heat flight muscles only if muscle temperatures are above 10°C, whereas cuculiinid winter moths can shiver with muscle temperatures near 0°C.
Flight muscle resting potential and species-specific differences in ...
May 1, 2000 · Cuculiinid winter moths can fly at very low environmental temperatures, and thus reduce predation from birds and bats, because their flight muscles are excitable down to 0°C (Esch, 1988, Goller and Esch, 1990).
