>They came to the conclusion that 'laying by the queen in early brood
rearing is controlled by the temperature gradient', as the chart above seems
to suggest...

I also wonder about the conclusions.  Seems that the data could also be
explained by the queen preferentially laying in the center of the
cluster--most eggs would thereby be laid at those temperatures, independent
of the queen measuring the temperature.
