Abstract
1. 1. Energetically Australian hopping mice are similar to other small desert rodents, utilizing hyperthermia under conditions of high T A , and having reduced basal metabolic rates and very short thermal neutral zones. 2. 2. Patterns of pulmocutaneous water loss resemble those of other small rodents, although rates are somewhat higher than in certain other desert rodents. 3. 3. The energetic responses of Australian hopping mice in and above thermal neutrality appear to reflect very closely the environmental conditions which prevail in their burrows during the daytime.
