Freshwater Snails Of Africa And Their Medical Importance
Biomphalaria sudanica is associated with the margins of lakes and papyrus
swamps and was classified as a poor aestivator by Brown (1975, 1980). Yet this
snail is reported to aestivate at the margin of Lake Zwai in Ethiopia during
periods of ...

Aestivation: Molecular and Physiological Aspects
To date, disuse muscle atrophy has only been examined in detail in one
aestivator, i.e., the green-striped burrowing frog, Cyclorana alboguttata (Hudson
and Franklin 2002a, 2002b, 2003; Hudson et al. 2006; Symonds et al. 2007). It
has been ...

Circannual Clocks: Annual Biological Rhythms
A "microecology" in other words, of substances favoring hibernation or not
favoring hibernation is a conceivable modus vivendi within an organ, or a cell, or
in the blood of a hibernator — aestivator. Our approach to the problem has been
...

The seasons: life and its rhythms
In this context, despite the superficial similarity of a hibemator and an aestivator,
there is dissimilarity: the hibemator is conserving food requirements and the
aestivator is conserving water at a time when water needs dominate all other ...

An aestivator while in the act of aestivating. aestivate, v.i. [L. aestivare, to spend

A matter of degree: heat, life, and death
The temperature of the homeothermic aestivator drops too, but not to quite so low
a level as that of the hibernator sleeping out the bitter winter. No food is needed
in either state, the fat reserves being sufficient to support the sleeping body's ...
