Abstract: | - 1.1. Hemolymph osmoregulation was examined in Chrysochus auratus, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus and Tenebrio molitor. These beetles differed in their water loss rates and in the availability of free water in their habitats.
- 2.2. During dehydration at comparable rates, osmotic responses were similar in these species. Osmoregulation after rehydration was better in C. auratus.
- 3.3. Osmoregulation ability was not significantly affected by the beetle's rate of dehydration.
