Abstract
⺠We tested how temperature impacts on remating rate in a fruit fly. ⺠Female mating rate was largely determined by temperature at point of courtship. ⺠Mating rate was also sensitive to temperature outside of courtship. ⺠Daily, seasonal & spatial thermal variation will thus alter ectotherm mating rate. ⺠Global change in temperature is also likely to impact on ectotherm mating rate.
