Color of bars denotes temperature range (grey = 27°C, red = 32–29°C, blue = 20–17°C). Treatments are also separated by the stage at which temperature exposure began. N = control cross: C+ female x C- male. R = rescue cross: C+ female x C+ male. Asterisks denote significant differences compared to respective crosses at 27C. § denotes significant differences to the N cross within that temperature treatment. N = 15 females for each treatment, with the mean number of offspring per female = 9.25.
