✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Estrogen induces reproductive behavior in lizards by acting on specific areas of the brain. Neural areas that selectively concentrate radioactivity after ~3~H‐estradiol administration were mapped using thawmount autoradiography. Major accumulations of hormone‐concentrating cells occur in the medial preoptic area, basal hypothalamus, amygdala (n. ventromedialis telencephali) and in and around the torus semicircularis. Numerous smaller accumulations are also described and the topographical distribution is compared with that of avian and mammalian species.

A daily rhythm of testicular photosensitivity entrained by the photoperiod of 10L:14D (1ight:dark) was detected in lizards at 30Β°C but not at 20Β°C. Testicular development in anoles at 30Β°C was stimulated by a 1-hour light interruption occurring 16.5 hours (Experiment I) or 20 (Experiment 11) after t

The claw of lizards is largely composed of beta-keratins, also referred to as keratin-associated betaproteins. Recently, we have reported that the genome of the lizard Anolis carolinensis contains alpha keratin genes homologous to hair keratins typical of hairs and claws of mammals. Molecular and im

## Abstract The thermal environment experienced during embryonic development can profoundly affect the phenotype, and potentially the fitness, of ectothermic animals. We examined the effect of incubation temperature on the thermal preferences of juveniles in the oviparous lizard, __Anolis carolinen

Although seasonal changes in organ composition have been determined in many types of mammals and amphibians, reptiles have been little utilized in such studies. During the last 4 years the lizard, Anolis carolirzelzsis, has been investigated extensively and found to undergo striking seasonal cycles
