Abstract

Body temperatures of individually housed Sceloporus occidentalis were monitored continuously while the animals moved freely over a thermal gradient during several daily light‐dark cycles and a subsequent period of constant darkness. These self‐selected body temperatures display a distinct daily pattern, a pattern which is maintained (with an altered cycle length) during constant darkness.

A colony of adult rats was maintained on a standardized regimen with artificial photoperiods extending from 0600 to 1800 alternating with 12 hours of darkness. Every hour during a 24-hour period separate subgroups of rats were injected with 35 mg/kg of pentobarbital sodium, and the duration of time
