Daily Heterothermy in Mammals: Coping with Unpredictable Environments
2000Zoogeographical patterns of daily heterothermy in mammals show that the Afrotropical and Australasian zones have the highest number of species, genera and orders exhibiting daily torpor. The Palaearctic has the lowest incidence of daily torpor. The Australasian and the Afrotropical zones also showed the highest incidences of summer torpor and torpor in

Daily Heterothermy by Temperate Bats Using Natural Roosts
2006Abstract Periods of heterothermy, or torpor, can save mammals and birds substantial amounts of energy. Temperate-zone insect-eating bats often use torpor to accommodate the thermoregulatory challenges associated with their large surface area to volume ratio and dependence on food that fluctuates within and between seasons.
