Abstract
⺠In the outdoor soil, Sarcophaga crassipalpis ecloses in the late morning. ⺠The eclosion advances as the amplitude of the sinusoidal temperature cycle decreases. ⺠This response allows pupae located at any depth to eclose in the late morning. ⺠The abrupt temperature increase resets the eclosion phase to the increasing time. ⺠This increase may act as the late-morning signal for the eclosion clock.
