Significantly, most of these rhythms will persist under constant conditions, showing that they are driven by an internal circadian clock. In birds the circa

## Abstract A century has passed since the discovery of the paratympanic organ (PTO), a mechanoreceptive sense organ in the middle ear of birds and other tetrapods. This luminal organ contains a sensory epithelium with typical mechanosensory hair cells and may function as a barometer and altimeter.

## Abstract A morphometric analysis has been made of the __rete ophthalmicum__ which is a functional arteriovenous heat exchange system in the heads of birds. The morphological data were obtained from histological sections of the rete from 40 species of birds covering a weight range of 20,000‐fold.

## Abstract For teeth as for any organ, knowledge of normal development is essential for the proper interpretation of developmental anomalies in mutant mice. It is generally accepted that tooth formation is initiated with a single signaling center that, in the incisor region, is exclusively related

## Abstract Thermoregulatory set points—i.e., the body temperatures at which heat‐seeking or cooling behavior are initiated—of the lacertid lizard __Podarcis muralis__ were measured by infrared thermography before and after covering the parietal eye with light filters with different cutoff points.
