Organisms occurring in the temperate zones of the earth must have adapted to seasonal fluctuations of the climate characteristic of these regions. Under changing environmental conditions the organisms exhibit plastic reaction norms, for example life cycles of different length resulting from different development rates under particular climatic conditions. The stonefly Nemurella pictetii is a species with a highly variable life cycle. Its life cycle can differ between different localities in its large range of distribution, but also between individuals at some given locality. To investigate possible causes of this variability was the aim of the present work. To this end, larval development rates were analysed under different environmental co...
