(7) 1816) for the term "loa," designating a species of filaria, pathogenic in humans, which is common tropical West Africa.

(20) Maximum power output for the fast muscle fibres from the Antarctic species at -1 degree C is around 60% of that of the tropical fish at 20 degrees C. Evolutionary temperature compensation of muscle power output appears largely to involve differences in the ability of cross bridges to generate force.
