“…As an extreme example, some Antarctic cold‐stenothermal species (e.g., Clark, Fraser, Burns, & Peck, ; Clark Fraser & Peck, ; La Terza, Papa, Miceli, & Luporini, ; Rinehart et al, ; Somero, ) as well as warm stenothermal coral reef fishes (Kassahn et al, ; Nilsson, Östlund‐Nilsson, & Munday, ) have lost the ability to activate a heat shock response via the expression of heat shock proteins, which makes them especially vulnerable to global change (Kellermann & van Heerwaarden, ; Patarnello, Verde, Prisco, Bargelloni, & Zane, ; Somero, ). These questions remain poorly explored in other extremely thermally stable habitats, such as subterranean environments, although some recent studies have found support for the climatic variability hypotheses for cave springtails (Raschmanová, Šustr, Kováč, Parimuchová, & Devetter, ) and spiders (Mammola, Piano, Malard, Vernon, & Isaia, ). However, the generality of such patterns remains controversial (see Gunderson & Stillman, ; Rohr et al, ), as other studies have found weak support for a correlation between some thermal tolerance traits and the magnitude or predictability of thermal variability (e.g., Kellermann et al, ; Overgaard, Kearney, & Hoffmann, ; Seebacher, White, & Franklin, ).…”
