Punt and I agree that a rapid fall in tracheal pO2, during which the tracheal gas is depleted of O2 down to tissue level, should follow spiracular constriction (Fig. 3C) and that a rapid entry of O2 should occur when the spiracles dilate at burst time and the tracheal pO2 rises again to or near atmospheric level (Fig. 3D).3 10.
