Abstract The upper lethal tolerances of Tellina tenuis da Costa and T. fabula Gmelin were studied under a variety of temperature regimes in which both short-term and long-term mortality were noted; these included steady temperatures, acclimation at a steady temperature then exposure to a steady tempeature, and acclimation at gradually increasing temperatures. T. tenuis alone was also tested for variation in mortality rate according to the date of collection or to the size (i.e., age) of the mollusc. The results suggested that T. tenuis was consistently more tolerant than T. fabula, and that the difference in tolerance was around 5 C°. Both species readily acclimated to higher temperatures after steady temperature acclimation, but not under a regime of gradually increasing temperature. There was no significant, variation in the mortality rate of T. tenuis with season or age. It is suggested that, since the difference in temperature tolerance is not reflected in their respective geographical distributions, there may be some other stage in their life cycle, e.g. the larvae, which is equally susceptible to temperature extremes. The difference in tolerance is, however, reflected in their respective littoral and sublittoral distributions.
