We study a nonlinear parabolic equation arising from heat combustion and plane curve evolution problems. Suppose that a solution satisfies a symmetry condition and blows up of type Ⅱ. We give an upper bound and a lower bound for the blowup rate of the solution. The lower bound obtained here is probably optimal.

Keywords: Degenerate parabolic equation, nonlinear parabolic equation, plane curve evolution, type Ⅱ blowup, blowup rate.
