Abstract
1. 1. Whole-body lactate production during intense activity was insensitive to body temperature T b from 25 to 35°C in the lizard Podarcis taurica. 2. 2. Whole-body lactate removal during recovery was more sensitive to T b from 15 to 35°C and was two orders of magnitude slower than production. 3. 3. At 30°C a significant oxygen debt persisted for a similar period to elevated lactate. 4. 4. Lizards recovering in refuges at 25 or 35°C emerged later than unexercised lizards, while, at 15°C they emerged after a short period and speeded recovery by basking.
