Gas exchange in developmentally amphibious insects

Meeting Abstract 118-7  Thursday, Jan. 7 11:45  Gas exchange in developmentally amphibious insects MATTHEWS, PG; University of British Columbia pmatthews@zoology.ubc.ca The insects have successfully reinvaded the aquatic environment numerous times, adapting their air-filled respiratory systems to function underwater. The evolution of tracheal gills enabled insects to exploit the aquatic environment as water-breathing animals, but they all must […]
