'Terrestrial arthropods from Finse 119 % H,O The oxygen consumption is given as m1 O2 - per g fresh weight per hr. In this study the 80 75: 70 body weight before the experiment is used. - Animals used for determination of water content and caloric values were weighed and frozen at Finse. Only animals weighed before freezing could be used for the determination \ of water content, because animals lost water while frozen. Caloric values were achieved by using a microbomb-calorimeter (Phillipson 1964) connected to a recording potentiometer with measuring, copper-constantan the apparatus thermocouples. was calibrated Before using benzoic acid of known caloric value. 43 measurements gave a standard deviation (SD) ** - which was 3.3O/o of the mean value. The 65 animals were dried and homogenized, and small pills of dried material, mostly 10-20 mg, were completely burned. 60 - Ash content, given as per cent of the dry weight, was achieved by completely burning larger samples of dried animals (100-200 mg) at 500°C. Dry Weight, mg. Fig. 5. Correlation between dry weight and water percentage in Calathus~melanoce~halus.

X marks mean value of four animals treated together. Regression line: Y = 85.20 - 1.70 X (r = 0.943). RESULTS Figs. 1-9 illustrate the correlation between water percentage and dry weight for imagines of the following species of Coleoptera: Nebria gyllenhali Schnh., N. nivalis Payk., Patrobus assimilis Chd., P. septentrionis Dej., Calafhus ~nelanocephalus L. (Carabidae), Otiorrhynchus dubius Strsm (Curculionidae) and larvae, pupae and imagines of Zygaena exulans Hochw. (Lep.). In al1 cases, except imagines of Z. exulans, water percentage decreased with increasing dry weight, this trend being especially pronounced among the Coleoptera. The water percentage also decreased with increasing fresh weight, although this correlation may be less pronounced. One sample of about 550 eggs from Z. exulans contained 76.S0/o water. This percentage is similar to that of larvae. Fig. 10 shows the relation between dry weight and water weight in the Coleoptera investigated, based upon the regression lines in Figs. 1-9. This figure reveals that when dry weight increases, the water weight first increases, then decreases. Table 1 gives a survey of the ash content
