Evaporative water loss, relative water economy and evaporative partitioning of a heterothermic marsupial, the monito del monte (Dromiciops gliroides)

We examine here evaporative water loss, economy and partitioning at ambient temperatures from 14 to 33°C for the monito delmonte (Dromiciops gliroides), a microbiotheriid marsupial found only in temperate rainforests of Chile. The monito's standard evaporative water loss (2.58 mg g–1 h–1 at 30°...
