The effects of bleeding on the short and long-term iron metabolism of the turtle, Pseudemys scripta elegans, have been determined. Values are given for the plasma radioiron clearance and the clearance constant ( K ) in normal, blednormal and in unbled-starved turtles. Clearance ratcs were increased

The morphologies of axon terminals of retinal ganglion cells projecting to the basal optic nucleus (BON) via the basal optic tract (BOT) were studied in the red-eared turtle. The BOT was visualized on the ventral surface of the brainstem in vitro, and either biotinylated dextran amine was injected e
We investigated the effects of exogenous corticosterone on the locomotor activity of captive red-eared slider turtles, Trachemys scripta elegans. An increase in plasma corticosterone often increases locomotor activity in mammals and birds, but there are no reported findings for turtles. In this stud
The effect of the simulated drying of a pond on the behavior and corticosterone secretion of Trachemys scripta was measured in a field situation. Slider turtles were held in experimental and control ponds (12 ร 15 m) enclosed with a drift fence integrated with springtriggered livetraps. The experime
