  • Title: Temperature preference of the crayfish Orconectes obscurus.
    Author: Hall LW, Cincotta DA, Stauffer JR, Hocutt CH.
    Journal: Arch Environ Contam Toxicol; 1978; 7(3):379-83. PubMed ID: 727833.
    Abstract:
    Acclimation temperature influenced the acute preferred temperature of the crayfish Orconectes obscurus. This species preferred a higher temperature than its acclimation temperature for those acclimation temperatures ranging from 6 degrees to 26 degrees C. When acclimated to 30 degrees and 33 degrees C, the crayfish preferred a lower temperature than its acclimation temperature. The final temperature preferendum is estimated to be approximately 30 degrees C.
