Conclusions. I. INTRODUCTION This review deals primarily with the physiological adaptations to thermal stress exhibited by poikilotherms, mostly aquatic, which are incapable of effectively regulating their body temperatures by behavioral or circulatory-metabolic means. The body temperature of such poikilotherms corresponds closely to that of the external environment (water temperature), except when the latter is changing rapidly; for example, the mean excess body temperature of Tilapia mossambica was 0.27âC at an ambient temperature of 22OC
