- aRegression parameters with their standard errors were determined with ordinary linear regression (one observation per temperature, Fig. 2), except for the larval feeding and pupal periods where generalized least-squares models were fitted under restricted maximum likelihood to the entire datasets of individual developmental rates (Fig. 3). bIncludes all of the foregoing as well as final morphogenesis and sclerotization, the thermal responses of which were found to be nonlinear
