Abstract excerpt
The integration of life-history, behavioural and physiological traits into a 'pace-of-life syndrome' is a powerful concept in understanding trait variation in nature. Yet, mechanisms maintaining variation in 'pace-of-life' are not well understood. We tested whether decreased thermal performance is an energetic cost of a faster pace-of-life. We characterized the pace-of-life of larvae of the damselfly Ischnura...
