摘要

Abstract

Starvation metabolism is one of the important parts of respiration for normal activities of chironomids. During April 1996 to March 1997

the relationships of starvation metabolism and temperature

body weight of two common chironomids in Biandantang Lake were carefully investigated. The results showed relationship between starvation metabolism (R

mgO2/ind.d) and body weight (Ww

mg wet wt) was:Chironomus plumosus lgR=−2.573+1.0211gWw (5°C)

lgR=−2.710+1.354lgWw (10°C)

lgR=−1.824+0.823 lgWw (15°C)

lgR=−1.364+0.442lg

Ww (20°C)

lgR=−2.763+1.517lgWw (25°C); andTokunagayusurika akamusi

lgR=−2.390+0.752lgWw (5°C)

lgR=−1.978+0.710lgWw (10°C)

lgR=−1.676+0.648lgWw (15°C)

lgR=−1.517+0.650lgWw (20°C)

lgR=−2.434+1.290lgWw (25°C). Relationship of starvation metabolism and temperature (T

°C) was:C. plumosus

R=−0.051+0.021T−0.0006T 2;T. akamusi

R=−0.051+0.021T−0.0006T 2. The complex relationship of the three parameters was:C. plumosus

R=0.0098Ww 0.3882e0.1068T ;T. akamusi

R=0.0012Ww 1.1936e0.0711T . With the above regressions

the estimated annual starvation metabolisms of the two chironomid species in Biandantang Lake were:C. plumosus

24.2791 kJ/m2.a;T. akamusi

8.7864 kJ/m2.a

respectively. This provides a firm foundation for the comparative study of bioenergetics of the chironomids.
