Abstract
Cover: Spectacled caiman (Caiman crocodilus) in Llanos, Venezuela. The warming climate will negatively affect nearly all species at multiple levels. Thus, adaptation to high temperatures will be critical to species' survival, particularly that of amphibians and reptiles due to the environment's regulation of their physiology and fitness. Sun et al. (e70127) examine common evolutionary and environmental thermal variations that shape reptile and amphibian heat tolerance and acclimation capacity.
