摘要: At Bakers Hill, differential winter mortality of juvenile slowgrowing Amphibolurus ornatus is correlated with the incidence frosts (Bradshaw, 1971). The present study shows that probability an individual will spend night in a refuge safe from lethal effect frost directly related to individual's size. Thus should occur during any particular winter, slow-growers, suffer higher than fast-growers. Tuttanning, animals do not segregate according size, and consequently slow-growers increased frosty winters.
