## Abstract The forelimb of the newt, __Triturus (Notophthalamus) viridescens__, was bilaterally amputated and the animals subjected to different photoperiods during the period of regeneration, namely (1) continuous light, (2) 15 hours of light/day and (3) total darkness. Animals exposed to continu
## Abstract A cyclic seasonal variation in forelimb regeneration in the newt, __Notophthalmus viridescens__, was noted under controlled environmental conditions at 20Β°C in previous experiments. Regeneration was enhanced in the summer months and reached its maximum linear growth rate in late springβ
## Abstract The cyclic adenosine 3β²β5β²βmonophosphate content of four regenerate stages in the forelimb of the newt, __Triturus viridescens__, was assayed using the Gilman method and compared to the content in the normal, unamputated, forelimb. The concentration was found to be highest in the earlie
The concentrations of thyroxine (TJ and triiodothyronine (T,) were determined on samples of fresh sera from adult male and female newts during the course of forelimb regeneration by means of radioimmunoassay (RIA) methods. The results show that the circulatory levels of T, and T3 in males and female
