Abstract
STUDIES on arthropod behaviour have often been concerned with the ‘preferred temperatures’ of the animals and attempts have been made to correlate results with the microclimatic changes in the animal's natural environment. It appears, however, that insufficient attention may have been paid to the other physical factors the variations of which cannot be easily eliminated from a temperature gradient. These factors have sometimes been assumed to be unimportant or have been disregarded altogether, and a preference shown by the animal for a particular zone within a temperature gradient apparatus has been attributed solely to temperature.
