Poikilotherm organisms are those whose internal body temperature varies and so can maintain their body temperature according to the environment. You can consider cold blooded animals as poikilotherm but some poikilotherm can maintain their body temperature constant because of the constant environment temperature. eg. frogs and reptiles.
