Existing models for the accumulation of photoperiodic information (the photoperiodic "'counter") cannot explain satisfactorily the various effects of temperature on diapause induction in insects and mites, nor the observation that in several insect species the so-called "required day number" has a h

Asexual planarians of the species Dugesia dorotocephala exhibit a distinct day-night rhythm of fissioning under the influence of normal photoperiod; fissioning occurs only at night. This rhythm is broken by continuous illumination, continuous darkness, or by decapitation. The fissioning rate increas
## Abstract Brine shrimp, __Artemia__, exhibit two modes of reproduction: __oviparity__ (diapause cyst production) and __ovoviviparity__ (live larvae release). Environmental conditions determining these developmental routes are poorly understood, so we investigated the effects of photoperiod and te
