Energetics, thermoregulation and torpor in the Chilean mouse-opossum Thylamys elegans (Didelphidae) Energética, termorregulación y sopor en la yaca Thylamys elegans (Didelphidae)
In this paper we studied the energetic expenditure and thermoregulation of the Chilean mouse-opossum Thylamys elegans (Dielphidae) a nocturnal small marsupial, endemic of southern South America.
