After Edwards.^'^^ at evening (61° F.).-° Koskimies-"-* has recently shown that under conditions of partial starvation swifts (Micropiis a. apus) become poikilothermic—the body temperature drops in the early morning hours to within 2-3° C. of the external temperature, respiratory breathing rate falls from about 40 to 10 per minute, and the oxygen consumption decreases proportionately. The sloth'^*^ too tends toward poikilothermy as a respiratory increase accompanies a temperature rise from 33° to 37° C. All things considered, it becomes increasingly evident that many mammals and birds show marked changes in internal temperature and.
