The tail of the Gekkonid lizard, Hemidactylus Pauiviridis was autotomized and subjected to eight different photoperiodic lengths during the period of tail regeneration, namely, 1) continuous light (LL: LD 24:O) ofhigh intensity; 2) continuous light (LL: LD 24:O) of low intensity; 3) continuous (tota
