## Abstract The effects of pinealectomy and exogenous melatonin treatment on the photoperiodic testicular response in the lizard __Anolis carolinensis__ were examined at two times of year. In the summer (JulyβAugust) neither pinealectomy nor melatonin affected the photoperiodic response. In the fal
## Abstract In reproductively responsive, male __Anolis carolinensis__ undergoing artificially induced testicular recrudescence, unilateral orchidectomy of the left testis produced compensatory hypertrophy of the remaining testis. Testosterone inhibited this compensatory testicular hypertrophy on a
Photo-sexual responses in Anolis carolinensis during the fall are highly temperature dependent and show distinct thermal thresholds. If body temperatures are maintained at 32Β°C (the species' preaerred temperature), day lengths of 13 hours or more stimulate testicular growth, whereas day lengths of 1
Removal of the pars distalis several days before the amputation of the tail in Anolis carolinensis delays blastema formation and virtually abolishes tail regeneration. Hypophysectomy on, or several days after, tail amputation does not delay blastema formation but tail growth is largely abolished. If
